The Biathlon World Championships 2013, held at Nove Mesto in the Czech Republic will be contested from February 6th through 17th, 2013. The best men and women from around the world be converging on Nove Mesto in the hopes of claiming a gold in the tough skiing and shooting sport of biathlon, in which stamina and calm nerves are needed. There are five events for the men and five events for the women athletes across the duration of the 2013 Biathlon World Championship and it will all start off with the Mixed relays on February 7th. The five disciplines across the Biathlon World Championships are the Sprint, Pursuit, individual, Relay and Mass Start.
The Nove Mesto 4 x 7.5 km relay, a mixed event, should produce a fascinating first day encounter. The women take the first two legs while legs 3 and 4 are completed by men. The French team are trading as favourites, but there could be good value in looking beyond them at the challenges to come from the Russians and the Norwegians. The Russian team scored a gold medal in Ostersund in the World Cup 1 event (with Nove Mesto being the World Cup 2 event). So they should take some confidence from a good win there, but they were pushed by the Norwegians who took gold in the 2012 Biathlon World Championships.
Some of the highlights of the Biathlon World Championships 2013 will be the sprint events for the men and women. The outright favourites set to duke it out for the gold medal will be dangerous Frenchman Martin Fourcade and his closest challenger Emil Hegle Svendsen. In the women’s sprint, which goes over 7.5km compared to the 10km in the mens, there is little to choose between Miriam Goessner and Darya Domracheva for the gold. Anything less than those two filling the gold and silver positions will be a shock.
Taking winning margin options on both of the sprint events is a good way to go for your Biathlon betting options, with between 10.0 and 24.9 seconds inclusive, always trading well at around 3/1, the same general price that can be taken for the margin being more than 25 seconds. Winning margins also cover the Mass Star events as well in Biathlon World Championship 2013 betting, a tighter 10.0 to 19.9 seconds margin being offered at a general 5/2.
The Nove Mesto Womens 4 x 6 relay market is being hotly dominated by Norway. They are well ahead of the threats from Russia and France, but Germany’s women could be the ones to muscle their way into a gold medal position. But it is France who take precedence in the men’s relay, having such strong individuals in their ranks. They go as outright favourites to taste gold, and they will have to fend off challenges from Russia and Norway though to get themselves on top of the world.
