With the finish line to the closing ceremony firmly in sight, there are 39 gold medals up for grabs on Saturday.
Cycling and athletics again dominate for Team GB.
Other medal chances could come in the modern pentathlon and taekwondo as the Paris Games prepares for its final day on Sunday.
Mad Madison
Hayter admitted he has questions over his own form after he finished a disappointing eighth in Thursday’s omnium, which started less than 24 hours after his dramatic slip in the team pursuit.
Hayter won Olympic silver in this event alongside Matt Walls at the Tokyo Games, while Wood took silver in the world championships in Glasgow last year with teammate Mark Stewart – the travelling reserve in Paris.
Gold hunt
Individual 400 metres silver medallist Matthew Hudson-Smith ran a 43.87 split on Friday morning to see GB through second-fastest of the semi-finalists in a season’s best time and vowed he has more in the tank for the race at 9pm (8pm BST).
Team GB’s women were also second-quickest behind the United States, who could employ a weapon in 400 metres hurdles gold medallist and world record-breaker Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone for their race at 9.14pm (8.14pm BST).
Modern pentathlon
The 29-year-old struggled in the fencing ranking round on Thursday and that will count against him in the 18-man final at Versailles, where he will need to make up ground in showjumping, swimming and the final laser run.
Kate French, who also won gold in Tokyo, goes into the women’s semi-finals well placed after the fencing along with British debutante Kerenza Bryson.
Last chance
McGowan – the partner of Bradly Sinden, who missed a bronze medal shot due to injury on Wednesday – is a world silver medallist in the women’s -68kg category while heavyweight Cunningham is the reigning European champion and a rising star.
Cunningham is first in action at 9.21am (8.21am BST), with McGowan at 12pm (11am BST).
Toby is top
There was a thrilling end at the sport climbing with Toby Roberts claiming gold for Great Britain in boulder and lead on Friday.
And there were three medals at Stade de France in the athletics and two in the velodrome.
That takes Team GB’s tally to 57 with two days remaining.
