From the 19th to 23rd February the peloton will be tackling the Volta ao Algarve, one of the races that has most evolved at international level and features a whole array of stars every year - when it comes to the climbers, sprinters and classics specialists. We preview the race stage 4.
Stage 4 will be a day where the sprinters will be licking their lips once again. It's not an easy day on the bike, it does feature a few small ascents that can ache for those who struggle with the longer efforts, and even close to the finish we've got bonus seconds available at the top of a small ascent.
Nevertheless, it can hurt some sprinters but they won't be enough to prevent a bunch sprint with most certainty, and in Faro we should have a third and final battle between the sprinters.
Prediction Volta ao Algarve 2025 stage 4:
*** Jordi Meeus, Alberto Dainese
** Biniam Girmay, Wout van Aert, Arnaud De Lie
* Casper van Uden, Milan Fretin, Samuel Watson, Madis Mihkels, Rui Oliveira, Santiago Mesa, Dries van Gestel,
Pick: Jordi Meeus
How: Meeus has been looking incredible so far this season in all terrains. The victory was no surprise, I think he will do it again.
