Tokyo 2020 Olympics Betting Tips – 6 August 2021

Instead of focusing on three different events, tipping one bet for each, we will be focusing on one event today and giving you three tips.

Olympic Betting Tips

As the Tokyo Olympics begins to wind down, there are fewer options to choose from than before with many of the top athletes having ended their runs at the event. Therefore, we are going to focus on one Olympic event rather than three.

However, this does not mean that there are not several options available to you as a punter. There are still many sports to bet on, while even in the women’s soccer event that we have chosen to focus on, there are many markets that could yield profit.

Instead of focusing on three different events, tipping one bet for each, we will be focusing on one event today and giving you three tips.

Women’s Soccer: Sweden v Canada

Sweden take on Canada in the gold medal match of the Women’s Soccer tournament, which is the game we are featuring in our preview today.

Given that it is a 2 pm kickoff, there is plenty of time to study the markets. At the time of writing, 140 markets are available to you.

Sweden have won all of their matches at the Olympics so far, with the 1-0 semi-final win over Australia the first victory which was by less than two goals. They are clear favourites to win this match in regulation time, which is our main tip.

In the correct score market, I am tipping a 1-0 win for Sweden, as Canada’s defence has been arguably the strongest in the whole tournament and a walkover is unlikely.

As far as the anytime goalscorer market goes, Stina Blackstenius is probably your best bet. With four goals so far at this tournament, she has been Sweden’s principal attacking threat.

Kick-off for the match is at 2 pm SAST.
