FIS Alpine Skiing Event Prediction: Marco Odermatt Favorite for Finishing at Podium

In the upcoming Alpine skiing event in Alta Badia, Italy, skiers will keep exhibiting their immaculate form and experience in the skiing arena. In the Giant Slalom event, notable players, including Odermatt, Henrick Kristoffersen, Zan Kranjec, Manuel Feller, and Lucas Braathen, will be making appearances. Going in the contest, many players will have the odds to win. However, the competition is between the top five contenders for the podium finish.

Without any doubt, eyes will be on Marco Odermatt, who has been in phenomenal game form and has claimed two World Championships Titles previously. Moreover, her was also won the Junior World Championship twice. It won’t be wrong to say that Marco Odermatt is the current king of Alpine ranges. With an Olympic Gold medal against his name, Marco Odermatt will be entering the alpine ranges as his favorite. Marco gained his first World Cup podium in March 2019, and since then, he has been among the top competitors.

Henrick Kristoffersen, who specializes in technical events such as slalom and giant slalom, will be sharing the skiing arena tomorrow. Henrick was made part of Norway’s Olympic team thrice: in 2014,2018 and 2022. While representing Norway, Henrick has ended at 1st position 28 times and once managed to secure Olympic Silver and Bronze medals, respectively.

Austrian Olympian skier Manuel Feller will be among the favorites for winning the Slalom event in Italy. Since his dream debut in November 2012, Manuel has claimed multiple titles with decent standings throughout his tenure. However, Manuel has no Olympic medals against his name but has the grit and determination to strike big at the big international event in Italy.

For the upcoming competition, it seems as if Marco Odermatt has reasonable competition, but one for which he should be worried. I am vouching for Henrick and Manuel to finish in the top three standings along with Marco. 

• Marco Odermatt Wins - Yes for 1.51
• Outright Winner - Manuel Feller for 11.00
• Giant Slalom - Podium Finish - Yes- Henrick Kristoffersen for 2.75
