We look ahead to the 23rd Winter Olympics taking place in Pyeongchang in South Korea and what might transpire for the British athletes.

Great Britain has sent its largest ever squad of 59 athletes to the games, and they are looking to beat their record medal haul of four – which they achieved in 1924 and last time out in 2014.

We go through each British athlete competing in South Korea and we highlight those considered a medal chances with their odds, whilst also giving you a full schedule for the British athletes.

All odds are provided by Unibet, and we spoke to Alistair Gill to get the lowdown on how much British interest there has been.

“Although our UK punters have done what they can to get stuck into the Winter Olympics, they’ve struggled to be overly patriotic to GBs chances as a whole, perhaps unsurprisingly,” he said.

“They have however got behind our medal chances; in the Woman’s 500m Short Track speed skating Elise Christie has seen over 90% of the money, whilst we have seen a fair chunk for defending champion Lizzie Yarnold in the Skeleton at a generous looking 20/1.

“In the curling, where team GB looks to have at least an outside medal chance in both the men’s and women’s disciplines, our UK punters have certainly seen this as a chance to add to the tally, over 30% of all money in across the 2 events coming for team GB.

“In the overall medal table markets however it is a very different story, with team GB being completely friendless from within the UK.

“At 4/6 Norway are strong favourites to top the Gold Medal table come the 25^th Feb. Although it looks tough for anyone to top the Norwegians, our players seem more than happy to oppose them, seeing perhaps a bit of value in the most popular pick America, at 7/1, followed by Canada at 23/2.”
