A national sportswriter whose work has appeared in The New York Times and Los Angeles Times, Tierney has covered nine Olympic Games in person. At Rio in 2016, Tierney profited big-time. He told readers to bet over on Team USA’s gold medal count (41.5) and over on Team USA’s overall medal count (102.5). The result? 46 golds, 121 medals and two easy cashes.
Then, at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, Tierney hit two of his three predictions: Germany (+200) to win the most gold medals and the United States winning under 10.5 gold medals (+110). At the last Winter Games in 2022, Tierney cashed in again by backing Team USA to go over 22.5 total medals (-110) as the Americans claimed 25 overall medals. Anyone following his Olympic betting picks at sportsbooks and on betting apps could have seen strong returns.

After evaluating this matchup, Tierney is leaning Over on the goal total (6.5). The Americans have scored at least five goals in each game in Italy, while Sweden has tallied at least four per matchup. The job gets much tougher for Sweden, but with Team USA’s track record, the Swedish might only need a goal or two to help lift the game Over the total.
