ATHLETICS
The men’s Decathlon and Shot Put concludes on Saturday and there is also the Women’s Triple Jump and the Mixed 4x400m relay finals.
The highlight though is the final of the Women’s 100m where Shacarri Richardson is a short priced 7/20 to take Gold. Veteran Shelly-ann Fraser-pryce is 11/1 for the win and 23/20 to get a medal.

SWIMMING
We have 4 finals to look forward to on Saturday night and you can click here for Swimming odds
In the Men’s 100m Butterfly Kristof Milak is the 9/10 favourite to take Gold.
The Women’s 200m Individual Medley is very competitive and Summer Mcintosh is top of the Betting Boards at 16/10 with Alexandra Walsh 5/2 and Kate Douglass 28/10 her market rivals.
The Women’s 800m Freestyle should be dominated by Katie Ledecky who is in a league of her own in these distance races. At 1/8 she is a bit short for my pocket though.
The Mixed 4x100m Relay is expected to be a battle between the USA (4/6) and China (16/10)
CYCLING
The Men’s Cycling Road Race takes place over a massive 273km and with small teams (a maximum of 4 riders) and a number of short, steep climbs this is going to be very hard for any one team to control.
World Champions Mathieu Van Der Poel tops the betting boards at 9/4 ahead of Evenepoel at 5/1 with Pedersen and Van Aert at 6/1.
This could be chaos on the roads (read great entertainment) and I think we could get an upset and fancy Jasper Stuyven who looked very good in the Tour de France.
