Tour de France 2022 stage 9 preview - A true mountain test in Switzerland

The roads of Switzerland lead to uphill finish in France at Pré la Joux for Alpine fireworks

Stage 9:  Aigle to Châtel Les Portes du Soleil

Date:  July 10, 2022

Distance: 192.9km

Stage timing : 12:30 - 17:15 CEST

Stage type:  Mountain

The second day of racing for the 2022 Tour de France in Switzerland promises to be by far harder than the first, with the 15.4km Pas des Morgins climb ending just 20km from the finish in Châtel. 

It will surely be far too hard for a super puncheur sprinter like Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) and far more suited a breakaway of talented and hungry climbers or perhaps even offer another showdown between Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) and his overall rivals.    

Pogačar lost UAE Team Emirates teammate Vegard Stake Laegen due to COVID-19 on Saturday morning but gained another four seconds with his third place in the Lasusanne sprint.

He now leads Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) by 39 seconds, with Geraint Thomas at 1:14 and the rest of the top ten spread over two minutes. Pogačar has not yet done enough to secure overall victory but he is clearly in charge and in yellow, with no one so far able to better him on any terrain.

Stage 9 from Aigle to Châtel via 192.9km loops into the Swiss mountains and will be a new test for Pogačar and his six remaining teammates. He will likely prevail and perhaps even domninaste yet again but it will be fascinating to see if any chinks appear in his armour.

Most of the stage takes place in Switzerland, visiting the UCI headquarters and the World Cycling centre on the way out of Aigle and then visiting further roads used for the Tour de Romandie.  

From the start in central Aigle, the peloton will travel down the Rhône valley to return to the shores of Lake Geneva via  Montreux and Vevey to Bourg-en-Lavaux where the fourth-category Côte de Bellevue begins. After the 4.3-kilometre climb, the route makes a detour north to the canton of Fribourg where the intermediate sprint is contested in Semsales before turning south again in Bulle.

Back in the Vaud canton, the second-category Col des Mosses and the first-category Col de la Croix are climbed before descending back to Aigle. The Côte de Bellevue is a perfect launch pad for a breakaway group to go clear and for the better climbers to get in the attack.

The Col des Mosses and the Col de la Croix will surely entice the true contenders for the polka-dot jersey to show their hand and try to accumulate points and so eventually strip Magnus Cort (EF Education-EasyPost) of the jersey.

The stage winner, whether it comes from a break or from the overall contenders, will emerge on first-category Pas des Morgins as the race heads towards the French border and the high Alpine peaks of the week ahead.

The Pas des Morgins climbs for 15.4 kilometres at an average 6.1%. The first 11km  are the steepest at between 5.9% to 8.6%, with a series of spectacular hairpins coming mid-climb.

Having crossed the border into France with 9.1km to go, riders will descend and so can catch their breath until just before the four-kilometre mark, where the road rises again to the finish at Pré la Joux on the higher outskirts of Châtel. The penultimate kilometre of this unclassified finishing climb is the steepest at 7%.

With no need to hold back as Monday is a rest day, riders hoping for a breakaway will be especially hungry and ambitious. However the overall contenders could also be up for a race.

“It’s bonkers so isn’t it?” said Geraint Thomas about the Tour and the open, aggressive racing so far.  

“We’ve only had two bunch sprints which is crazy for the Tour. That’s the way it’s going. Breaks aren’t working out so far. It’s definitely a different start to the Tour than it used to be."

Thomas is not convinced a breakaway can escape the clutches of the peloton and the battles between his Ineos Grenadiers team, Pogačar’s UAE Team Emirates and the strength of Jumbo-Visma.

“This race seems to be different, we have to expect the worst and hope for the best. We’re definitely ready for a super hard final, so some guys might go all in,” Thomas warned.

Tour de France 2022 odds, field, predictions: Proven cycling expert locks in surprising picks, best bets

Sportsline's gene menez correctly predicted the winners of the yellow, green and white jerseys in the 2019 tour de france.

tour-de-france.jpg

A band of challengers will try to end Tadej Pogacar's reign in the world's most famous bike race when the 2022 Tour de France begins on Friday in Copenhagen, Denmark. The 23-year-old Pogacar has won the Tour the last two years but will need to fend off several rivals to win his third Tour. Those include the runners-up the last two years, Jonas Vingegaard ('21) and Primoz Roglic ('20), 2018 champion Geraint Thomas and Russian upstart Alexander Vlasov. 

Pogacar is the -170 favorite (risk $170 to win $100) in the latest 2022 Tour de France odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Vingegaard is second in the odds at +450, while Roglic is +500. The Tour de France 2022 ends on July 24 with its traditional finish on the Champs-Elysees in Paris. With so many variables in the 2022 Tour de France, you'll want to see the latest 2022 Tour de France predictions from SportsLine senior writer Gene Menez . 

A former reporter and associate editor for Sports Illustrated, where he covered an array of sports for almost 14 years, Menez has been obsessed with the Tour de France for almost four decades. He has been following the iconic three-week race since the mid-1980s when Greg LeMond was riding to three yellow jerseys. In 2019, Menez correctly predicted the winners of the yellow, green and white jerseys, and last year he nailed the winner of the white jersey.

Menez has analyzed the 2022 Tour de France favorites, route, and top contenders and has picked his top-three finishers for the yellow jersey, as well as the winners of the green jersey (best sprinter), polka dot jersey (best climber) and white jersey (best young rider). He's sharing all of his expert Tour de France 2022 picks only at SportsLine . 

Top 2022 Tour de France picks

One shocker: After studying the route and the results of the contenders in the race, Menez has landed on Fabio Jakobsen (+550) taking home the green jersey even though he is not the betting favorite. (Wout van Aert is, at -140.) Jakobsen has been the best and most consistent sprinter in the world this year, with 10 victories. He also has won the green jersey in three stage races this year: Valencia, Algarve and Hungary.

Menez prefers Jakobsen over van Aert because the latter will likely be asked to help teammates Vingegaard and Roglic in the mountain stages, which could take a lot of starch out of his legs. On the other hand, Jakobsen's team will dedicate all of its resources to Jakobsen's green jersey quest. "I'll gladly take +550 on the fastest man in the race," he says.

How to make 2022 Tour de France picks

Menez's pick to win the Tour de France is a rider who "is in terrific form." He's also is high on a "strong climber" at "nice odds" to win the King of the Mountains jersey. He is sharing all of his 2022 Tour de France picks only on SportsLine .

So which rider wins the Tour de France 2022? Who finishes on the podium? And who captures the green, polka dot and white jerseys? See the 2022 Tour de France odds below and  visit SportsLine to see Menez's detailed Tour de France expert picks , all from the SportsLine senior writer who has been intensely following the sport for more than three decades.

Tour de France 2023: Favorites To Win Each Stage – Part 1

View the favorites to win each of the 9 stages before the first break.

Tour de France 2023: Stage 1 to 9 - Who Are the Favorites to Win?

Let’s start profiling likely champions per stage for each one of these first 9 stages before the break ; afterwards, we will take a look at the betting odds they bring with them for an integral Tour de France Betting Preview.

We’ll start with the first 9 stages prior to the first resting point.

Odds to Win Stage 1:

Bilbao-bilbao (july 1, 182 km).

The Tour kicks off on a demanding note with four challenging climbs in the last 80 km to the finish line. French fans just might start the celebration early; Julian Alaphilippe seems tailor-made for this thrilling opener, possibly earning a win and the coveted yellow jersey.

Odds to Win Stage 2:

Vitoria gasteiz-san sebastián (july 2, 209 km).

This stage presents a hillier track than most early Tour stages. A select group is expected to jostle for the top spot, with versatile riders like Wout van Aert or Magnus Cort seen as the likely victors.

Odds to Win Stage 3:

Amorebieta-bayonne (july 3, 187.4 km).

This stage is peppered with a few challenging climbs but features a downhill finish, setting the scene for a gripping bunch sprint. Anticipation for Mark Cavendish is high among British fans, but last year’s sprint sensation, Fabio Jakobsen, might steal the show.

Odds to Win Stage 4:

Dax-nogaro (july 4, 181.8 km).

Another flat stage beckoning another bunch sprint. The possibility of sweltering heat might up the ante, with sprint powerhouses like Cavendish, Jakobsen, Caleb Ewan, and Dylan Groenewegen all vying for supremacy. Will Jumbo-Visma unleash Van Aert, or reserve his energy for supporting Jonas Vingegaard in the Pyrenees? Only time will tell.

Odds to Win Stage 5:

Pau-laruns (july 5, 163 km).

Real contenders are expected to separate from the pack on two super-steep, long climbs in the Pyrenees. Agile climbers with swift descending skills like Matej Mohoric are favored to shine.

Odds to Win Stage 6:

Tarbes-cauterets (july 6, 145 km).

The second day in the Pyrenees ends with a lengthy uphill finish. Expect pure climbers like Giulio Ciccone or Neilson Powless, eyeing both the stage win and the King of the Mountains jersey, to dominate.

Odds to Win Stage 7:

Mont de marsan-bordeaux (july 7, 170 km).

A flat, hot stage could provide Cavendish with his third opportunity to break Eddy Merckx’s stage win record.

Odds to Win Stage 8:

Libourne-limoges (july 8, 201 km).

Though a bunch sprint seems likely, the final 70km will test the riders with a constant up-and-down terrain. Strong riders like Mathieu van der Poel or Søren Kragh Andersen could leverage this tough finale to their advantage.

Odds to Win Stage 9:

St léonard de noblat-le puy de dôme (july 9, 182.5 km).

An insanely steep final will put Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar under the spotlight. This demanding climb could very well trigger a significant reshuffling of the rankings.

At this resting point, cycling odds may have to be shaken up a bit, so keep your eyes set on Point Spreads for more insights and betting goodies coming up.

TOUR DE FRANCE STAGE 9 BETTING PREVIEW 

Stage 9 will be the third authentic mountain test for GC contenders.

Furthermore, climbers who are outside the general classification can go for a long breakaway for the polka-dot jersey to collect points and target a stage win.

The run-up to the finish ascent is far from flat but doesn't offer big climbs. Five hills are on the menu before de Puy De Dome:

  • Côte du Lac de Vassivière (4.4 kilometres at 4%)
  • Côte de Felletin (2.1 kilometres at 5.2%)
  • Côte de Pontcharraud (1.8 kilometres at 4.6%)
  • Côte de Pontaumur (3.3 kilometres at 5.3%)
  • Col de la Nugère (9.2 kilometres at 2.8%).

The Col de la Nugere crests with 31 km to go and its descend brings the peloton at the base of the Puy de Dome, a 13.3 km climb with an average gradient of 7.7% and the final 5km constantly above 10%.

Stage 9 Favourites

We have a double scenario here. UAE and Jumbo Visma allowing a brakaway with good climbers to get a big gap or these two teams keeping things tight with another Pogaçar-Vingegaard duel in the final 5 kilometers.

Jonas Vingegaard won one minute over the Slovenian on Stage 5 but Tadej Pogaçar earned half that gap the following day in the stage that also featured the Tourmalet.

The duo are by far the strongest riders in the peloton, but it's hard to predict who will be the better climber on Sunday.

Anyway, if no breakaway succeeds, it's almost impossible for any other GC contender to beat them, even if they anticipate the attack.

We give slim chances only to Jai Hindley and Carlos Rodriguez while Simon Yates crashed on Saturday and could struggle here.

livescore bet

Any possible surprise?

Giulio Ciccone and Mattias Skjelmose both helped their "captain" Mads Pedersen on Saturday, meaning they are not targeting this stage.

So we expect riders such as Ruben Guerreiro, Michael Woods, Felix Gall, Emanuel Buchmann, Daniel Martinez, Marc Soler, Pello Bilbao, Ion Izaguirre, Mikel Landa, Matteo Jorgenson, Thibaut Pinot and the current KOM leader Neilson Powless to be in the brakaway.

Among them, keep an eye on Daniel Martinez as the Colombian won the last time the Tour went over the Puy-de-Dome and he knows these mountain very well.

Vingegaard or Pogačar? Who Do the Betting Markets Favor to Win the Tour de France?

Not much separates the top two GC threats heading into the final week, but Vegas gives a slight edge to one rider over the other.

110th tour de france 2023 stage 15

As this year’s Tour prepares to start its final week, very little continues to separate these two champions. It’s been a historically close TdF so far. Of course, only one will wear the maillot jaune in Paris. So who is favored by those experts in Vegas? Sports betting odds often provide good insight into which riders have the edge. After all, these services stand to lose a lot of money if they get this kind of thing wrong.

Here are the 2023 Tour de France odds for the General Classification (as of Monday, July 17 at 5 p.m. EDT) from three different gambling services.

  • Jonas Vingegaard -120
  • Tadej Pogačar +100
  • Jonas Vingegaard -125

These figures tell us that Vegas gives the edge to the defending Tour champion Vingegaard. But it’s only a very slight advantage. -120 translates to an implied probability of 54.5 percent and -125 translates to an implied probability of 55.6 percent. +100, Pogačar’s odds, translates to an implied probability of 50 percent.

More or less, this competition is a toss up. If you’ve been following the Tour de France this year, these numbers shouldn’t be too surprising.

Vingegaard gained fairly significant time on Pogačar during Stage 5, putting his early advantage at 53 seconds. But Pogačar has little by little been chipping away at Vingegaard’s lead in the yellow jersey competition. Pogačar has gone on the offensive numerous times in the last week plus, and on a few occasions, Vingegaard hasn’t been able to match his accelerations.

Vingegaard now leads Pogačar by just 10 seconds—a number that can shrink or increase over the last six stages between an individual time trial to open the final week on Tuesday and two tough mountain stages.

With the exception of his slip up on Stage 5, Pogačar has appeared to have a bit of a one-up on Vingegaard over the ensuing 10 stages. Yet the betting markets seem to still favor Vingegaard, albeit very slightly.

Bicycling isn’t going to give you gambling advice, nor do we condone gambling. These odds merely give us a look at how those who stand to make a lot of money see this head-to-head battle playing out.

As far as we’re concerned, we’re excited to sit back, relax, and enjoy what should be a thrilling last week of the men’s Tour de France.

Opinion: 5 reasons why tadej pogačar will win the tour de france, pogačar is halfway to history to become the first rider since marco pantani to complete the giro-tour double, and there's no one who can stop him..

Tadej Pogačar is halfway to history, and looks poised to become the first rider since Marco Pantani in 1998 to win the Giro d’Italia and Tour de France in the same season.

The Slovenian star bulldozed his way to victory at the Giro by dominating the racing every single day. The statistics reflect the imperious rule the 25-year-old imposed on the “corsa rosa.” Six stage wins, 20 days in pink, and the biggest winning margin since the 1960s.

What’s next?

After taking a break to recover from the Giro, Pogačar will hit altitude at Isola 2000 in the southern Alps to keep the wheels spinning before the Tour starts June 29 in Florence, Italy.

All things point toward the historical Pantani mark. Who or what can beat him? Right now, destiny seems to be on Pogačar’s side.

Here are five reasons why Pogačar will pull off the Giro-Tour double.

1. Pogačar raced the near-perfect Giro

Dario Belingheri/Getty Images

First things first, Pogačar had to win the Giro, and he pulled off a near-perfect race.

Of his six grand tour starts since 2019, this Giro was perhaps Pogačar’s most balanced, all-round effort. He dominated the Giro from start to finish, setting the tone and pace right from the very first stage, and raced three weeks largely unchallenged .

UAE Team Emirates did its job to protect him on the flats and deliver him to the key moments of the race without putting Pogačar into the wind.

And Pogačar paid them back with six stage wins, and three more top-3 podiums. And despite cat-calls that he was being a cannibal and too greedy, Pogačar was quite sensible across this Giro.

In the past, he’s sometimes spent too much energy chasing unnecessary stage wins and results, especially at the Tour de France, when that over-eagerness might have cost him the yellow jersey in 2022.

UAE Team Emirates and Pogačar hatched a plan for this Giro — to attack early to gain a comfortable lead — and they pulled it off without a hitch.

The weather helped, too. Despite a few cold days in the final week, the first two weeks of racing were contested under relatively mild racing conditions, meaning that Pogačar wasn’t burning unnecessary matches to stay healthy.

Pogačar also avoided crashes and spills, and was never caught out by a rogue attack that might have scrambled the GC playbook.

Despite a three-week grand tour full of traps and obstacles, Pogačar raced across Italy suffering only one puncture and one minor spill.

A relatively easy Giro — if there is such a thing — will help him recovery faster and ease into the Tour with the best chances for the double.

2. Pogačar didn’t go too deep

Pogacar

Despite his domination, or perhaps because he was so strong , Pogačar never went too deep to win the maglia rosa .

Though no one has the direct line on his power meter, Pogačar never appeared to go into the red or over-extend himself at any moment during this Giro. Most of his winning attacks seemed to be safely inside the realm of a laser-guided 20-minute effort .

His biggest moves also came at precise moments to have maximum effect, and he seemed to be able to handle the big efforts in the key mountain stages as if he were on an intense training camp.

Nothing against his direct rivals, but the likes of Daniel Martínez (Bora Hansgrohe) or Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) never had the legs to take it directly to Pogačar . And the rest of the top-10 was full of riders who, let’s be honest, are never going to win a grand tour outright.

That meant Pogačar could extract maximum gains with minimal effort.

The team’s coaching staff built the Giro-Tour double into Pogačar’s calendar already late last year. That means that everything was calibrated going forward to see Pogačar leave the Giro without being overly extended.

Well, we made it to Rome A fifth Grand Tour podium and one of my proudest. Of course we came here to win, but sometimes you have to hold up your hands to greatness. It’s an honour to race against Tadej. Chapeau mate, and chapeau Dani #Giro #grazie pic.twitter.com/hzdCSglf2M — Geraint Thomas (@GeraintThomas86) May 27, 2024

Before the Giro, he skipped the punishing cobbled classics and the sponsor-friendly UAE Tour to hit the Giro with only 10 days of racing.

Previous Giro-Tour double attempts have seen riders come out of the Giro ragged and worn after scraping through a hard-fought fight for pink that continued into the final week, with those efforts later costing them in the back half of the Tour.

Pogačar seemed to glide across May, and that will help shuttle him toward Florence next month in optimum condition.

Without burying himself in May, Pogačar might be able to have the legs when it counts in the back-half of a much more challenging Tour.

3. No one can beat him at the Tour de France

Evenepoel Vingegaard

What should have been a once in a generation showdown at the Tour this summer took a massive blow in the horrendous Itzulia Basque Country crash in early April that saw three of the “Big 4” suffer potentially career-altering injuries.

Instead of seeing Pogačar face off against Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel and Primož Roglič in full splendor, the others will be entering the Tour hobbled at best.

There is still a question mark over Vingegaard being at the start line, and if he does make it, it’s very likely he won’t be at 100 percent to race for a third consecutive title. The Dane, backed by a stacked Jumbo-Visma in 2022 and 2023, was the only rider who broke the “Pogačar Code.”

Slovenian Grand Tour overall victories 1909-2018: 0 2019-2024: 7 — CafeRoubaix (@CafeRoubaix) May 26, 2024

Without Vingegaard at top form, all eyes will turn to Evenepoel and Roglič.

Evenepoel seems to have recovered from his broken bones and surgery, but missing out on a few weeks of training in the key weeks and months ahead of the Tour will be felt. Even at his best, the Belgian star would have a hard time matching Pogačar’s explosive power in the high mountains.

Despite his sky high personal confidence, Evenepoel and Soudal Quick-Step will also be out-gunned by superteams UAE and Visma-Lease a Bike. He’s already tamping down expectations and said a podium in his Tour debut would be a welcome result.

Roglič came out of the Itzulia nightmare with the least damage, so the Slovenian veteran could emerge as Pogačar’s most dangerous direct rival.

He simply has the most to chase at this Tour. At 34, time is running out for Roglič, even if he did come late to the sport. Now with Bora-Hansgrohe, Roglič will be looking to avenge his 2020 Tour loss, but question marks remain. The Critérium du Dauphiné next week should tell us more.

Is there anyone else who can beat Pogačar? Not likely. A rider like Carlos Rodríguez or Richard Carapaz might be able to stay close in the mountains, but they’ll be shellacked in the time trials.

There’s a risk of counting victory too soon, but Pogačar confirmed during the Giro he will focus on what’s directly in front of him without looking too far down the road.

4. Pogačar is at his physical peak

Pogačar

Another key factor tilting in Pogačar’s favor for the Tour will be that he’s attempting the Giro-Tour double at the height of his powers.

Over the last 25 years, many of the top contenders for the double often left it too late or didn’t even bother. Lance Armstrong never tried to race the Giro during his now-disqualified seven-straight Tour wins. Others, like Alberto Contador, never raced the double at peak form because the Tour de France simply holds so much importance to sponsors.

Chris Froome , who was the king of the Tour during the previous decade, never dared to race the Giro until 2018.

By then, Froome had already won four yellow jerseys, and reluctantly took on the double to check off the Giro box. He had to go so deep to win the Giro, however, that it cost him later at the Tour, when he finished third on the podium behind teammate Geraint Thomas and Tom Dumoulin.

Other Giro-Tour attempts were either almost accidental, in that a Giro winner would race the Tour out of obligation to a sponsor, or perhaps came from a rider who won the Giro but never really stood the chance to win the yellow jersey in the first place.

What’s different about Pogačar taking on the Giro-Tour double right now is that he is at his physical peak.

His double attempt is not a late-career challenge, but instead it’s coming just when Pogačar is looking better than ever.

Across the Giro, Pogačar looked leaner and more focused than at any point of his already prodigious career. At 25, he’s hitting near maturity that is showing up in interesting ways.

Pogačar in 2024 is more akin to Miguel Induráin winning the Giro-Tour double two years in a row in 1992 and 1993 when “Big Mig” was truly coming into his own.

And let’s not forget his UAE Team Emirates squad. If the team might have brought its “B-team” to the Giro, the Tour lineup looks to be cycling’s version of Murderer’s Row from the New York Yankees.

Last year’s third-place man Adam Yates is back, along with Juan Ayuso, Joǎo Almeida, Pavel Sivakov, and Tim Wellens.

With a strong team and an even stronger Pogačar, against the backdrop of hobbled key rivals, the road to Nice is looking clear.

5. Pogačar is a generational star

tour de france stage 9 odds

Perhaps more than anything, fate and momentum seem to be on Pogačar’s side.

He is that rare racer who transcends the rest of the peloton and who is capable of pulling off the impossible.

Comparisons to Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault do not miss the mark. What Pogačar is accomplishing will elevate him to among the sport’s very best.

⭕️Youngest riders when completing trilogy of GC podiums in GTs (//): 25-205: Hinault 25-225: Gimondi 25-247: Pogačar 25-289: Contador 26-219: Quintana 26-276: Fignon 27-250: Nibali 27-295: Fuente 27-301: Van Springel 27-330: Merckx @VeloStatistics — Cycling Statistics (@StatsOnCycling) May 26, 2024

That’s not to say that Pogačar’s generation is weak. Quite the opposite. Today’s grand tour depth and quality is the best and varied as it’s been in decades. And it’s shame that the likes of Vingegaard, Roglič, and Evenepoel suffered that horrible crash. In a way, that incident is stealing away perhaps what could have been one of the greatest Tours in modern cycling history.

This Tour still should be one to remember.

Though the Giro was almost a foregone conclusion from the start, Pogačar’s racing style and grace still made this Giro wildly entertaining.

Witnessing Pogačar in his prime taking one of cycling’s most elusive and prestigious milestones will make this Tour one to remember.

T20 World Cup 2024 tables: Fixtures, results, schedule in full, how to watch, venues and odds

The 2024 T20 World Cup gets underway this summer.

Held in the USA and West Indies , fans of cricket old and new are in for a treat as a Stateside audience is introduced to, and hopefully embraces, a game which has traditionally been met with indifference across the pond.

However, the T20 format is designed to get the pulses racing and the matches held in New York, Texas and Florida should be great spectacles particularly with favourites India facing Pakistan during the first group stage.

This year’s tournament is split into a first-round group stage consisting of five teams in each of the four groups, the top two of which qualify for the Super 8s. Those two groups will each produce two qualifiers for the semi-finals, before the final on June 29 at the Kensington Oval in Barbados.

England are the defending champions and have a big point to prove after letting their 50-over crown slip away so meekly in India last year.

Scotland, Ireland and Afghanistan are among the dark horses looking to cause an upset but otherwise it’s a case of the usual suspects eyeing the trophy with Australia and South Africa tipped to go far.

Fans in the UK will not get the early start times for several of the games, which will take place late at night to meet the needs of the local North American audience.
