Dame Lisa takes to the water for the last time in the Paris Games, having won gold in both the women's kayak fours on Thursday and the women's kayak doubles on Friday.
She is on track for a gold-medal showdown with Aimee Fisher, after both blitzed the field in their heats of the women's single kayak sprint.
The final - which has been earmarked as an historic event for NZ sport - is at 11pm.
"It is awesome for New Zealand Aotearoa to have two wahine at the absolute peak of their powers in this event," Fisher told First Up's Nathan Rarere.

Sam Dakin, men's keirin heats, 3.19am Sunday
Sam Dakin - the sole male sprinter in the men's cycling team - is coming off his best year, where he is ranked seventh on Olympic rankings in the keirin.
In this event, riders follow a motorbike for several laps before a sprint finish. Tactics are key - and riders need to be alert, after a nasty crash in the women's keirin quarter-finals on Friday.

Hamish Kerr, men's high jump final, from 5.10am Sunday
Kerr's career highlight was in March in Glasgow, when he soared to 2.36 at the world indoor championships, claiming the gold medal and setting a national record.
His progress to the final looked shaky at the Stade de France on Wednesday night, however, when it took three goes to clear 2.20m.
"I've faced a few of those jumps in my life and not all of them have pulled off so I had to dig pretty deep for that one."
Eventually, he was one of just five athletes to clear 2.27m and book his spot in Sunday morning's final.
