Scheldeprijs 2023 Women - Prediction

Wednesday, April 5th: Scholten - Scholten (131.6 km)

The Scheldeprijs for Women 2023 is set to take place on a flat course with a start and finish in Schoten. The route first takes the riders towards Brecht, where wind may play a crucial role in the open fields of northern Belgium. Once they return to Schoten, they will complete three local laps of 17 km each. The race is expected to favor the pure sprinters, and it remains to be seen if Lorena Wiebes can make it three in a row on the Scheldeprijs podium.

Last year, the race was dominated by Wiebes, who convincingly won the mass sprint ahead of Consonni and Barbieri. CyclingOracle predicts that Wiebes is once again the favorite to win, with a probability of 36.5%. Other contenders include Chiara Consonni (11.9%), Charlotte Kool (8.9%), and Lonneke Uneken (8.7%). The teams with the highest chances of taking home the victory are Team SD Worx, Ceratizit-WNT Pro Cycling, and Liv Racing TeqFind. It remains to be seen whether Wiebes will make it three in a row or if a new name will emerge on the Scheldeprijs for Women's winner's list.
