In the Biathlon World Cup in Nove Mesto, the men’s sprint is coming up on Thursday. The focus is on the Norwegian duel between Sturla Holm Laegreid and Johannes Thingnes Bö – coach Tobias Reiter gives its premiere with the Germans.
Can Johannes Thingnes Bö take off his yellow camisole again to his team colleague Sturla Holm Laegreid? Laegreid was able to take the lead before the World Cup break.
Laegreid lies with a 48 point ahead of the men’s sprint on Thursday (from 6:25 p.m. in the live ticker) at the top of the overall ranking, closely followed by Bö. At the World Cup in Lenzerheide, Laegreid was also able to demonstrate its dominance at Bös’s last World Cup appearance.
The Norwegians also go to the sprint as favorites. On the bill, however, you should also have the French around Eric Perrot and American Campbell Wright.
Biathlon men: the same contingent as with the World Cup
However, Reiter has not made major changes in the nominations: As at the World Cup, Johannes Kühn, Philipp Nawrath, Justus Strelow, Philipp Horn, David Zobel and Danilo Riethmüller are running for Germany.
