British taekwondo hope Sarah Stevenson could cap a traumatic 18 months with an Olympic medal, while BMX star

Shanaze Reade and Britain's 470 sailors have gold in their sights. Full schedule available on BBC Sport website TAEKWONDO (09:00-22:45): Sarah Stevenson, women's -67kg; Lutalo Muhammad, men's 80kg

World champion Stevenson was one of the stories of the Games four years ago when she won bronze after a scoring error was overturned. In the last 18 months she has lost both her parents to terminal illness, won the world title and overcome a serious knee injury. Muhammad will want to prove his controversial selection ahead of world number one Aaron Cook, after a protracted wrangle with the governing body, was merited. If successful, Stevenson and Muhammad will take part in preliminary (09:00), quarter-final (15:00), semi-final (17:00) and final (17:15) rounds. BMX (15:00-16:45): Shanaze Reade

Reade gets her chance to make up for the disappointment of crashing in Beijing after qualifying fifth fastest for the semi-finals (15:00), with the final at 16:30. Caroline Buchanan of Australia was the fastest qualifier. Fellow Briton Liam Phillips was impressive in making quick progress to the semis (15:08) and also harbours hopes of a medal in the men's final (16:40). Dutchman Raymon van der Biezen won all his qualifying heats. SAILING (12:00-13:30): Luke Patience and Stuart Bithell, men's 470; Saskia Clark and Hannah Mills, women's 470

Patience and Bithell are guaranteed silver and hope to overhaul Australia's Mathew Belcher and Malcolm Page for gold in the medal race (12:00), which was postponed on Thursday because of light winds. That sets up a potential day of double gold for Britain's sailors, with Saskia Clark and Hannah Mills going into the medal race (13:00) of the women's 470 level at the top of the standings with New Zealand's Jo Aleh and Olivia Powrie. ATHLETICS (20:55): Lisa Dobriskey and Laura Weightman, women's 1500m

Britain has a healthy representation of two finalists in the women's 1500m. Dobriskey, who considered quitting the sport earlier this year due to potentially fatal blood clots on her lungs, qualified fourth in her semi-final; Weightman, coached by BBC Sport commentator and former Olympic silver medallist Steve Cram, went through as one of the two fastest losers. The women's 5,000m final (20:05) will see a fascinating clash between Ethiopia's Tirunesh Dibaba and Kenyan Vivian Cheruiyot. Steve Lewis goes in the pole vault (19:00) and Sophie Hitchon in the hammer final (19:35), the relays continue with the finals of the women's 4x100m (20:40) and the men's 4x400m (21:20), and the Jamaicans are expected to star in the first round of the men's 4x100m (19:45). BOXING (14:00-22:56): GB men

Four British men have the chance to guarantee at least silver medals as the semi-finals take place at the ExCel. Bantamweight Luke Campbell faces Japan's Satoshi Shimizu (14:00), welterweight Fred Evans is up against Canada's Custio Clayton (14:30), middleweight Anthony Ogogo takes on Esquiva Falcao Florentino of Brazil (15:00), and super-heavyweight Ivan Dychko of Kazakhstan (22:30). HOCKEY (15:30-16:55): Great Britain v New Zealand women

Great Britain's women had high hopes of contesting the gold medal match but Argentina's semi-final win means it is they who will take on the Netherlands in the final (20:00). Britain must raise themselves to play New Zealand for bronze, which would equal the best-ever performance of Barcelona 1992. BASKETBALL (19:50-22:10): United States men

The United States will not take their men's semi-final lightly as they face Argentina, the side who beat them on the way to a shock gold in Athens eight years ago, at the North Greenwich Arena. Spain face Russia in the other semi-final. Hockey 8:30am Team GB women face New Zealand in the bronze medal match after their disappointing 2-1 loss against Argentina in Wednesday's semi-final. Great Britain will be hoping to add to their goal tally (15 this tournament versus New Zealand's 11 [not including shoot-outs]) to bring home a medal. Both teams have won three matches each so far. In the gold medal match at 8pm, defending champions the Netherlands take on Beijing 2008 bronze medallists Argentina. The Netherlands have won all their matches so far, while Argentina lost to the USA 1-0 in the preliminary rounds. Other matches include 5th-6th place between China and Australia and 11th-12th place between Belgium and the USA. Swimming 12pm After the excitement of the women's 10km marathon swim around Hyde park, today the men take their turn at a marathon dip in the Serpentine. The big hope for Team GB is Daniel Fogg, hoping to go one better than the silver David Davies won four years ago in Beijing. Fogg will face strong competition from Italy's Valerio Cleri who finished fourth in 2008, missing out on the medals by 14 seconds. At 31, this could be Cleri's last attempt at an Olympic medal. Boxing 2:15pm Four Team GB boxers will be in men's semi-finals, including the middlweight Anthony Ogogo, up against Brazil's Esquiva Falcao Florentino. "I'm ready," said Ogogo. "I'm ready. I want my place in that Olympic final. I want the whole nation roaring me on. I want the opportunity to fight for the gold medal and more than anything I want to become Olympic Champion." Luke Campbell, Fred Evans and Anthony Joshua will also be battling to make it to the final for Team GB. In the quarter-finals, the bantamweight Campbell took out Bulgaria's Detelin Dalakliev on a close 16-15 count. Basketball 5pm Twenty-years after the original "Dream Team" who included Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley and Larry Bird, the latest vintage with Kobe Bryant and and Le Bron James remain unbeaten in London 2012. The USA team made up of stellar NBA players are due to play Argentina in the semifinals at 9pm, which have moved to the North Greenwich Arena. Having already broken an Olympic record by scoring 156 points against Nigeria last week, the Americans remain firm favourites for the gold medal. The defending champions are expected to breeze through this match and it will be the third time the USA have played Argentina in this tournament. Spain meet Russia in the other semifinal match at 5pm. Football 7:45pm Rivals South Korea and Japan kick off in the bronze medal match at 7.45pm. Korea were beaten 0-3 by Brazil on Tuesday. The Japenese team were beaten 3-1 by Mexico, and are aiming to bring home a medal for the first time in 44 years. The Japan captain, Maya Yoshida, said: "We need to regroup right away. We've got to try to motivate ourselves and give it one more shot. I want to go home with a medal."

Brits to watch Tom Daley Diving: Men's 10m Platform 7pm Daley, who stunned the nation with his performance at Beijing at the age of 14, plans to use his father's memory as inspiration. Daley did not win a medal in 2008, but became the youngest ever British male athlete at an Olympics. He went on to win gold at the 2009 world championships and two more golds at the 2010 Commonwealth Games. Daley, alongside his diving partner Pete Waterfield missed out on a medal opportunity in the 10m synchro dive last week. To fulfil his childhood dream of getting an Olympic medal Daley will need to beat rival Qiu Bo of China, who took his world title last year. The Briton says: "Normally in diving, silver is gold, because the Chinese dominate everything, but you never know what can happen." Team GB Men's 4x400 relay 9.20pm The British relay team defied expectations by making it to the final and achieving a season's best of 3min 00.38sec in their heat. Today Nigel Levine, Conrad Williams, Jack Green and Martyn Rooney face the defending champions USA, and the Bahamas, Russia, Trinidad and Tobago and Cuba. In Beijing, lead by Rooney, the team missed out on a medal even though they performed a season's best time. Green said: "I felt I had a lot to prove" referring to his failure to qualify for the semi-finals of the 400m. In the heats, GB would have won if it were not for Trinidad and Tobago's Deon Lendore. Rooney will again lead the team and with such positive signs in the heat, Team GB's men have the confidence to go for a medal against the odds. Shanaze Reade Women's BMX 3pm The 23-year-old Reade will continue her pursuit for gold as she races in only BMX's second appearance at the Games. The rider who broke her arm in a collision at Beijing, finishing eighth, and is counting on better luck this time. "I have won the worlds, I have won the Europeans but I have not won the Olympics. That is what keeps the fire burning all the time," Reade said. Naming Victoria Pendleton as her inspiration, Reade says she is determined to succeed. She says: "It was the best thing that happened to me in Beijing to not win that Olympics because it gave me the rules of how to be an Olympic champion. If I had won I wouldn't have been a true Olympic champion because I didn't have all the ingredients it took to be the champion."
