Girls, do you turn on the duel between Marit Bjoergen and Therese Johaug for the crystal ball. The two are separated by 140 points in favor of the younger of the two champions, but the timing and terms of the form shown recently they tip the scales in favor of the greatest distance runner of all time.
On the other hand, Martin Johnsrud Sundby male has the first match point: if at the end of 50 km would boast more than 300 points ahead (it currently has 388 compatriot Chris Jespersen), the Norwegian mathematically win the World Cup, however, these should be two races on home snow, it seems unlikely that the twenty-nine will fail before the appointment with the crystal ball of his career.
