Double appointment this afternoon on the snows of Anterselva, with the women involved in the mass start, the last individual race before the Pokljuka World Championships and the men at the start in the Relay (15:05). Among the blues there will be Wierer and Vittozzi, both with important goals for today's race.

Dorothea Wierer will try to fight for the podium and for that elusive victory last year in the final race of the home World Cup. In the season, the Italian team boasts a third place in Hochfilzen and a sixth, with some regrets, in Oberhof. The specialty ranking is very short and the leader's red bib is only 10 points away. An important race also for Lisa Vittozzi, who came out well from the Individual and growing in condition on skis. For the sappadina it will be essential to confirm the good feelings to project themselves in the best way towards the world championship.
Here the complete Startlist!
Here the IBU Live timing!
In the crystal ball race there will be yet another challenge between the Norwegians Eckhoff and Roeiseland, with Hanna Oeberg ready to seize the opportunity to catch up in case of missteps of the two leaders. All three Scandinavians have struggled in the Individual and will have to redeem themselves today. On the other hand, Lisa Theresa Hauser took off in the 15 km, with her first career victory. She will also be in the fight for the podium of the day. The numbers are eloquent: four podiums with one success in the last five races and 7th place in the overall standings. Julia Simon, winner in Oberhof and leader of the specialty ranking together with Marte Roeiseland, and Franziska Preuss who can be considered a format specialist also leave with great ambitions.
Here the ranking of specialties!

In Val Pusteria sono andate in scena due giornate della versione estiva dello sci di fondo, con Marco Pinzani e Federica Cassol che hanno tronfato nella sprint del sabato sull'asfalto di Anterselva. A Dobbiaco, invece, le 10 km in alternato hanno regalato il successo a Davide Graz e Maria Gismondi, all'interno della cornice della Nordic Arena per quella che è stata la prima tappa della Coppa Italia invernale.
