Paris 2024 Olympics Betting Odds: Men’s Handball Picks 4q3i5q
Men’s Handball Betting Odds: Group Winner 1422w
The Men’s Handball Tournament at the Paris 2024 Olympics has a round-robin format. There are two pools of six teams and the top four from each pool advance to the Knockout Stage.
The nightcap match of Day 1 is a heavyweight rematch from the 2020 Tokyo Finals, vs Denmark. In fact, both and Denmark are -250 to appear in the 2024 Finals against each other.
Knowing this, Group A, without one of the two titans, is super actionable.

Men’s Handball Picks: +1200 Group A Winner d5i1n
During the European Qualifying tournament for the Olympics (EHF EURO 2024), Spain did not advance out of the Preliminary Round. Spain needed to win a much smaller Qualification tournament against weaker competition (held in their home country) to be eligible to compete in the Olympics. I’m choosing to fade the Spaniards.
Sweden has the most impressive roster and beat 34-31 in the Bronze Medal match at EHF EURO 2024. The Germans’ price at 12/1 is definitely enticing, but they didn’t put on many ceiling performances. Croatia also defeated 30-24 in the same tournament.
The Sweden Handball Federation won four Silver medals in six events from 1992 to 2012. However, a Gold Medal has eluded the Swedes. They have rebuilt with a new generation and are ready to give it a good go in the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Star center-backs Jim Gottfridsson and Felix Carr, along with stud goalkeeper Andreas Palicka, are players to watch in this year’s tournament.

Women’s Handball Picks: -115 Outright Winner 2m4l2s
arguably has the two best women’s Handball players currently in Pauletta Foppa and Lena Grandveau. Foppa led the 2020 Tokyo Games with 7 goals. Grandveau was awarded the 2023 IHF Young Female Player of the Year.
The two of them have led the French to a 2020 Olympic Gold Medal and a 2023 World Championship. I expect to assert their dominance on home court in the Paris 2024 Olympics Handball Tournament.
