Athletes from 196 nations are coming to a very different city than the one that was awarded the Olympic Games seven years ago, but the competition still figures to be fierce and fun, and the Cariocas wouldn’t have it any other way. Below, we predict the winner for each gold, silver and bronze medal that will be awarded in 306 events in Rio, starting August 6 and ending August 21. 

Once the Games are underway, you can follow our Rio 2016 medal tracker for up-to-the-minute medal standings and results.
