Nobody is for sure. It all depends on the shape of the universe.
If the universe is shaped like a sphere, then the potential exists for the Big Crunch, Big Freeze, or Big Rip.
If the Universe is saddle-shaped, then the Big Crunch is impossible, meaning the only two fates are the the Big Freeze or Big Rip.
If the universe is flat, or euclidean, then the only two fates are Big Freeze or Big Rip.

First the Big Bang: everything will expand into something which is nothing
and then contract into something which is everything. This will be the ultimate fate, everybody and everything, even the slightest electron that ever existed will be revived

Death by cold. The universe appears to be expanding at an accelerating rate.
