Five categorised climbs are on the menu for stage 5, offering up a leg-biting day that contains a whopping 3,567m of climbing in just 163.1km of racing! The final 85km of the day is where the shark teeth lay in wait, ready to sink their incisors into the legs of an unwitting victim, namely those in the breakaway who cannot handle the steep climbs that litter the second half of the stage.

Stage 4 could be breakaway heaven as the lumps and bumps come in abundance, promising us all an entertaining afternoon spectacle. At 25km to go, the riders will climb the Vivero ascent, which will extend for 6km at an average gradient of 6.3%. With just 19km to ride after the hill has been crested - 11km of which are pan-flat - the Vivero climb looks ideal for a race-winning attack to be made!

After passing by the finish line in Laudio 80km into the stage, two laps of a circuit await with climbs to Opellora and Ozeka on each occasion. These idyllic villages lay on hilltops that the riders will have to tackle - Opellora for 1.1km at 13% and Ozeka for 3.6km at 7.4%. The 24km remaining after the last climb may dissuade some from attacking, or it may result in the GC battle being blown wide open.

Scheldeprijs is one of the flattest one-day races on the calendar and thus a rare opportunity for a sprinter to add a Flandrian Classic to their palmares. With a handful of the world’s best, including Fabio Jakobsen, Tim Merlier and Dylan Groenewegen, set to take to the startline this Wednesday the race is shaping up to be somewhat of an unofficial ‘Sprinter’s World Championship’. The question is, who’s going to come out on top and crown themselves the King of the Sprinters this spring?
