Top Favorites And Underdogs For 2022 Men's Scheldeprijs

The Scheldeprijs is the fifth installment of the Flanders Classics. Marcel Kittel holds the most wins at five. Alpecin-Fenix’s Jasper Philipsen won in 2021.

Fabio Jakobsen is disappointed with his performance at Gent-Wevelgem and his Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl team has faltered in the spring classics. Scheldeprijs is a big opportunity for Quick Step to get their spring campaign back on track.

Dylan Groenewegen finished ninth at the 2018 Men's Scheldeprijs. He has found a new home at Team BikeExchange-Jayco in 2022.

Alexander Kristoff is the 2015 winner of Scheldeprijs. Kristoffs admits that his fastest days are behind him.

Danny Van Poppel will take part in the 2022 Men's Scheldeprijs. He finished fourth in last year's edition. Sam Bennett will not be in attendance.

It’s time to stop writing off Alexander Kristoff

Scheldeprijs was, as has been remarked, a bit of a strange one. Not one of the most beloved Classics, this year's edition featured grotty weather, Tim Merlier doing a thing, and Alexander Kristoff doing something much more impressive that won't get anywhere near as much attention. In a way, that's kind of fitting. For the past few years, the big…
