Lulu: Marc Hirschi has the qualities to win this stage with an uphill finish.
CC 2004: The uphill sprint finish will favour a climber / puncheur could win and this means Marc Hirschi, who has been consistent results on hilly sprints terrain this year.
Mufcfaan: A stage that has Hirschi written all over it, but respect has to been given to Dylan Teuns and his impressive win at Fleche Wallonne.
