ÖSV team without Eder
At the start of the season, the Austrian team took fourth place in the relay with strong shooting performances. Today, however, the team has to do without their veteran. After Eder was unable to take part in the individual competitions, he is also out of the relay in front of his home crowd. Dominic Unterweger was put in first place for today’s season. David Komatz will run in the second group, followed by Felix Leitner and Patrick Jakob.

Podium again for Germany?
After the brilliant weekend in Sweden, the German team has not yet been able to set off any fireworks in Hochfilzen, but if things come together better at the shooting range today, another podium for the DSV quartet should be possible. David Zobel was put first. Johannes Kühn follows in second position ahead of Philipp Nawrath. Dominik Doll was nominated as the final runner.

Does it work better in Sweden?
The Swedes are likely to start today with a lot of anger in their stomachs, because things certainly didn’t go according to plan for them at the season opener in Östersund and they couldn’t live up to their role as favorites. Of course, France is also always important to consider. The team relies on exactly the same line-up as in Sweden with Perrot, Jacquelin, Fabien Claude and Fillon Maillet.

Norway the top favorite
The top favorite is of course once again the relay from Norway. The quartet dominated the relays last season and also won in Östersund. In contrast to the first race, there is a change in the team: Sturla Holm Lægreid will replace Strømsheim in first position. In addition to Lægreid, the team consists of the Bø brothers and Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen, a traditional combination.
