Norway's Olympic Machine
Norway has been the undisputed king of the Winter Olympics for decades. At Beijing 2022, the team brought home 37 medals (16 gold). Can they match — or exceed — that haul in Italy?
Cross-Country Skiing: The Foundation
Johannes Høsflot Klæbo and Therese Johaug remain the anchors. Klæbo, still just 29, has won gold at every Olympics since 2018. The question isn't whether he'll medal, but how many times.
Johaug's comeback story continues. After retirement speculation, she's been posting impressive results in the 2025/26 World Cup season.
Biathlon: Norway's Secret Weapon
With the Bø brothers still competing and a strong development pipeline, Norway could sweep multiple biathlon events. The relay teams are particularly strong.
Alpine: Kilde's Return?
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde's serious injury raised questions about his Olympic future. His potential return would be one of the great sports stories of 2026.

What Could Go Wrong?
Italy's home advantage shouldn't be underestimated. The conditions in Milano Cortina will be different from Beijing's artificial snow. Sweden and Germany are also building strong teams.
