The American pair notched up their most impressive win when they defeated the much-hyped duo of Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals. They then defeated the Czech pair of Tomas Machac and Adam Pavlasek in the semi-final to advance to the gold medal round.
Just like the American pair, the duo of Matthew Ebden and John Peers have also not played extensively together in 2024, which is evident from the pair's 3-2 record in the season preceding the Olympics. The Australian pair too are yet to drop a set at the Paris Olympics.
They defeated the Lebanese pair of Hady Habib and Benjamin Hassan before triumphing over the Spanish pair of Pablo Carreno Busta and Marcel Granollers in the first two rounds.
The Australian pair then defeated the German team of Dominik Koepfer and Jan-Lennard Struff in the quarter-final. In the semi-final, the Australian pair defeated the high-profile third-seeded team of Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz to book their place in the final.

Rajeev Ram/ Austin Krajicek vs Matthew Ebden/ John Peers prediction
In their semi-final match Ram/ Krajicek won 83% of their first-serve points and over 60 percent of second-serve points. Their serving was flawless as the pair did not face a single break point on their serve throughout the match. The pair also returned well, winning 49 percent of the total return points in the match.
The pair of Ebden/ Peers won 73% of the first serve points and 71 percent of the overall service points in the semi-final match against Fritz/ Paul. Their return was a bit weak for the Australian duo as they could only muster 40 percent of the return points in the match.
Both teams have former World No. 1 in doubles Rajeev Ram, Austin Krajicek and Matthew Ebden. However, Ebden and Peers have been a more long-term doubles team than Ram and Krajicek. The current form for Ebden also indicates an advantage for the Australian pair in the gold medal match.
Pick- Matthew Ebden/ John Peers to win in three sets
