Switzerland are back level at 2-2 in the group match against Finland. Having both lost their opening two matches, they will face a quarter-final against Group B opponents.

If figure skating is more your thing, you're in luck as the free skate, external concludes with the pairs at 15:45 GMT. Russians Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov are likely to star.

Volosozhar switched from Ukraine after Vancouver 2010 to team up with Trankov, and they won world gold last year. They set a world-record points total in October and will, of course, be on home ice. Germany's Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy could be their closest rivals for gold.

No Brits are involved in the Nordic Combined events, with Germany's Eric Frenzel the favourite. He won the overall World Cup last year and is well placed to do the same this time round - however, the German will face stiff competition from Norway's Haavard Klemetsen who won four of the eight training rounds, including two on Tuesday. Coverage starts at 09:30 GMT.

"British slopestyle skier James Woods has come through three runs in training unscathed this morning.

"The 22-year-old injured his hip after a crash last week and whilst he wasn't pushing himself to the extreme today, he showed enough to suggest he will be able to put down some strong runs in tomorrow's competition.

"We'll only find out in qualification though just how much his 'big' moves will be hampered by that injury."

How does Nordic Combined work, I hear you ask? The leader after the ski jumping element is given a head start in the cross-country skiing race, with a time handicap for the other athletes based on how many points they finished behind.

The Winter Olympics' only male-only sport, which consists of ski jumping and cross-country skiing, is the next event to start. It requires a marriage of explosive power for the ski jumping and endurance for the cross-country race. The men's indibidual normal hill/10km starts at 09:30 GMT.

Finland lead Switzerland 2-0 after the first period of the women's preliminary round Group A match. Both sides have lost their opening two games. You can follow the action via the video stream at the top of the page.

It's all over at the women's downhill with Chemmy Alcott confirmed finishing 19th, 1.86 seconds off the pace set by gold medal winners Dominique Gisin and Tina Maze.

"Chemmy is in her final Winter Olympics. One of only two Brits in the alpine skiing. She is happy to have raced in this Olympics and to currently be in the top 20. She is just happy to have got down. I'm really proud of her, after all her injuries."

Chris Adams:, external Never thought I would get so involved with the Winter Olympics. Loving it so far and Sochi looks beautiful.

Jane & Jess:, external Chemmy Alcott is soooo inspirational and soooo amazing!

Switzerland's Dominique Gisin, joint-gold medallist in the women's downhill, on BBC Two: "I didn't want to look at the big screens. It's crazy. There was a lot of nerves, a lot of sweat, lot of emotions. It was lonely there in the leader's box. It's incredible, how else can I say it. It's a big honour to share the gold with Tina, she's an amazing woman. This is awesome."

There are still five skiers to go, but the organisers have called it. Tina Maze and Dominique Gisin will share the gold medal after clocking the exact same time. It's the first time ever that an Olympic alpine skiing gold medal has been shared. Lara Gut of Switzerland wins the bronze.

"Yes! Proud of myself," says Chemmy Alcott after crossing the line with the 19th fastest time. Decent effort from the Briton considering her run of injuries.

"Chemmy Alcott told me earlier this week she listens to a six-minute jazz version of Lady Gaga's Edge of Glory while visualising the course three times in her head at the top, so is probably still humming along. Is she? On the edge of glory...?"

We're back under way in the downhill, with Sweden's Sara Hector out on the course. Next up is Britain's Chemmy Alcott.

Alexandra Coletti is being stretchered off the course. More on her condition when we have it.

Alexandra Coletti of Monaco has had a bad fall on one of the fastest parts of the course. The medics are on the scene.

"I'm like a song on repeat but Great Britain's Lizzy Yarnold's preparations for these Games could not have gone any better. After five official training runs, she's been first four times and fourth once.

In today's fifth run, she was nearly half a second faster than anyone else. Her main rival to gold, the United States' Noelle Pikus-Pace has again elected not to train, which is an odd decision considering they only have six official runs and normally sliders want to take advantage of any training they can get.

There are murmurings of a back problem but the official line yesterday was that she wanted to spend time with family and friends. Well, they line up proper tomorrow with the first two competition runs and we'll start to know who is in form."

Britain's Chemmy Alcott, who has been training with the Norwegian squad, has competed in downhill at the last three Winter Olympics, with her 11th place in Turin in 2006 her best result, and her joint-best result from all five disciplines. Can she make it into the top 10 for the first time? Not long until we find out...
