Bobsleigh

Former Olympic bronze medalist bobsleigh star John Jackson:

"Francesco Friedrich and the German team are the people to beat at every major championships. This season, in the two-man, he's only been off the podium once. In the four-man, he's only been off the top step once and that's because he changed his team to give somebody a farewell race before the Olympics because they were retiring. And they finished second.

"Francesco is the equivalent of Lewis Hamilton or Valentino Rossi. He is one of those people that is just at the top of his sport. He is going to take the gold unless something seriously goes wrong."

BBC ice hockey commentator Seth Bennett:

"Canada, Sweden and the USA are all super strong but I can’t see past the Russians. They have such strength in depth that they’re undoubted favourites. But the men’s tournament has a habit of throwing a surprise.

"At the last Winter Olympics, Germany came from nowhere to meet Russia in the final and were a minute away from taking a shock gold. Sadly for them, Russia equalised at the death and won a thriller in overtime. Expect more thrills and spills this year."
