The triple jump sees Portugal's Pedro Pichardo look to defend his gold medal in France this summer - however, he faces stiff competition from Spain's Jordan Díaz for first place.
Pichardo, 31, will have to fend off Díaz, 23, with the latter in fine form.
Díaz won the European title this year, and he came close to setting a new world record.

Jamaica's Jaydon Hibbert and Hugues Fabrice Zango of Burkina Faso are also potential winners, meaning this year's competition in France will be enthralling.
In the women's competition, Tokyo gold medal winner and four-time World Championships winner Yulimar Rojas is injured, leaving Leyanis Perez of Cuba at the top of the pile. She is undefeated outdoors this year.

Team GB don't have any hopes in the triple jump this year, so UK fans can just sit back and enjoy the action in France.
In the men's, it looks a four-way battle between Díaz, Pichardo, Hibbert and Zango, but only three of the four can end up with a medal.
As for the women's competition, it looks Perez's to lose - however, anything can happen at the Games.
