As you can see, according to the Paris 2024 Olympics betting, Popovici has an excellent chance of winning the gold medal, and any other winner would be a shock.

But if there is to be a shock, Duncan Scott is best placed to take advantage of that, joint second favourite, he is fancied to claim a medal in this final.

Further out in the betting, Matt Richards is 5th best at the odds, and is going to have to swim faster than his semi final, but could be a lively outsider if things fall correctly for him.

Duncan Scott Odds

Priced up as the second favourite to win gold, if Popovici fails to fire for whatever reason tonight, Scott is more than capable of taking advantage.
