Valverde seems to have his sprinting legs at the moment, so he's a good bet for Amstel, and he's a monster on the Muur, but the one I really want him to win again is Liége. His occasional tactical fuckup might come into play yet again, though.
If not a Valverde triple, at least I want proper winners. No Iglinskys, even though that race actually was pretty great.

Let's go for one win from Katusha, AGR. One win from Astana in LBL. One win from Sky, FW. Then let the forum lose their minds over doping

It all should be finished with a two-man sprint from a Sky-rider and an Astana-rider, where the superior sprinter inexplicably looks the wrong way with 200m to go.

Currently in the Brabantse Pijl, a breakaway with De Gendt, Kirsch and Delaplace. If De Gendt has one of his days, this could get interesting.
Offtopic:
How funny would it be if Kwiatkowski or another Etixx rider continues Etixx' 2nd place streak. I can imagine Lefevere's face, saying: "we didn't win, because the others raced like cowards, bla bla bla".

Surprising riders: I would love to see Kreuziger again with a long attack...de Gendt, Kiriyenka, Tom Dumoulin, Bardet. Especially hoping for a Lotto-SOudal victory.
Hot are Henao and Stybar at the moment, but will they do the races? Is Degenkolb at AGR? If yes he could do something in a slow race as well as Martens. Arredondo will add some attacking fun to the race having Frank and Bauke in the race.
Favourites: I hope for Valverde, but honestly I´m fear of the depth of Sky (Poels, Kiri, Henao) and OPQS (Kwiatkowski, Alaphilippe, Meeresman, Martin). BMC also with different cards to play, but Gilbert doesn´t seem too strong until now, thought the same with Purito until the last stage.
EDIT: Orica seems to be really strong...i hope for a chance for Navardauskas and an offensive Bardiani

Yes it was great, especially since I just saw he won before posting my predictions. |
