PREVIEW | Volta ao Algarve 2025 stage 4 - Will Wout van Aert be able to win for the first time this season?

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.

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.
