Lotto Soudal currently sit almost 800 points behind 18th place - currently occupied by Movistar Team - so once again the Belgian team is under tremendous pressure to perform. Every race will matter, and the team is having a strong lineup for the upcoming Tour of Leuven.
Arnaud De Lie won a stage at the Tour de Wallonie recently, however it will be in the one-day races that the most points will be available, and he will be a big candidate to take the win. The team has options to protect him for a sprint, however in such type of racing the classics riders and offensive racing are usually successful.
For that the team also has a string of strong classics riders in Victor Capenaerts, Florian Vermeersch and Brent van Moer who can do both jobs. Jasper De Buyst is also an option for such an explosive race.
Lotto Soudal for Tour of Leuven: Arnaud De Lie, Cedric Beullens, Victor Campenaerts, Jasper De Buyst, Sébastien Grignard, Brent van Moer and Florian Vermeersch.
