19-17 to us, with our silver advantage the Chinese may have to out gold is by 3 over the next five days to bridge the gap. We have 1 guaranteed silver and good chances in(approximate decreasing order of likelihood) 5k(Mo), triathlon, Nicola Adams', men's super heavyweight, jade Jones and A Cook in tawkondo. Looking at 25 golds say, then China may need 9 more. Badminton, diving and taekwondo look their best chances.

Do you mean Aaron Cook? I think he's taken Moldovan citizenship and is in their team.

Oh , I didn't know that just saw the name. Don't blame him and good luck to him was ridiculous they didn't pick him in 2012. We have another guy called Mohammed, think he got bronze in London

not much money matched but GB been trading around 1/2 on the over 23.5 golds market. seems a bit low to me. we'd probably need to pick up a bonus gold or 2 other than the obvious chances robdylan mentioned

could be close china are way down on their london performance (38 golds). they might not get more than around 25 and GB looking likely to have tie breaker on silvers at the moment

GB are guaranteed a 20th gold in women's sailing 470 (available to lay 1.01).

Farah, Adams, Brownlee are all odds on. Jade Jones is 6/4. Joyce is 2/1. There's a few others given a 10-25% of gold by the market (Women's hockey team, Daley, Cooke, Walkden, Phillips just who I am aware of).

I don't know if I'm missing anything else, but from that seems we will end up with around 25 golds.

Add men's kayak single and double 200m to the 10-25% chance of gold. We are 5.x to win gold in both.

BBC website is predicting China to finish with 24 golds,GB 23. They predict Nicola Adams,Mo Farah and Bianca Walkden to win gold as well as the guaranteed gold in sailing.

depends whose table you use, if you're going by the EU table then we are not even in it.
Report mafeking August 18, 2016 2:52 PM BST
23 seems about the absolute minimum number of golds GB will win from here. they've got alistair brownlee down for silver when he's clear odds on favourite and his main rival is injured
