This season : 19-7 + 29.1 units
All : 84-37 +195.38 units
Like a lot of bets for men relay tomorrow , hopefully a sweep . There are many cheap odds but I think those are pretty safe bets .
I took time and counted total course time from the sprint today for all starters .

Ukraine vs Italy
My pick is
Ukraine to finish ahead
Odds : 1.40
Where : bet365
3 units to win 1.2 units
Counted course time from the sprint today
98.24 min for 4 Ukraine starters today , Italy
100.30 min ( Cola didn't start today so I counted his average time ) . 2 minutes better total course time for Ukraine also only made total 5 errros today out of 40 shots , italian 3 starters made 7 errors and I am sure Cola wouldn't finish with 0 either .
Last relay Ukraine was third and Italy 10th and 1.35 min in front of Italy .
Clearly Ukraine is a much better team and all 4 of their guys are very solid both running and especially shooting , don't see anybody running a penalty loop here as you get extra 3 shots in every shooting position while Italy is all weak but maybe De Lozenzi . Low odds but I see Ukraine in front by atleast 1.30 min .
Ukraine vs Belarus
My pick is
Ukraine to finish ahead
Odds : 1.40
Where : betandwin
3.57 units to win 1.42 units
So 98.24 min for Ukraine starters today in sprint against 100.11 min of Belarus who only has 2 semi-solid starters but two of their other guys are rather weak . I count on Ukraine to deliver the goods tomorrow so I took them in 2nd H2H .
Norway vs France
My pick is
Norway to finish ahead
Odds : 1.40
Where : unibet
4 units to win 1.6 units
This is my favourite bet so far , two previous ones are solid but this should be money in the bank .
Norway today with amazing form , Berger and Os finished 1st and 2nd in sprint with best running times by far .
Total course time today for Os , Berger , Hanevold , Gjederem : 95.56 min ! France four starters: 99.30 min and this is almost 4 minutes behind Norway ! If nobody falls down and collapses for Norway they should finish in front of slow turtles from France easily .
Germany vs France
My pick is
Germany to finish ahead
Odds : 1.50
Where : unibet
4 units to win 2 units
97.25 min vs 99.30 min = 4 german starters had 2 min total advantage in sprint over their french opponents . I consider this a very good bet as well , Germany has much faster runners especially with Greis vs Fourcade as last starter I see Germany with a huge advantage here .
This looks like 4-0 , in a very worst case 3-1 even tho I am not sure how one of those can go wrong .
