It’s the battle of the slopes at the Alpine Skiing World Cup

IT’S BACK this year and we couldn’t be more excited! Let’s dive into this weekend of women’s sports with the Alpine Skiing World Cup in Vermont. 

The cold is coming and winter is fast approaching, so why not get in the spirit with some winter sports?

After the International Ski Federation cancelled the World Cup in North America because of the pandemic last year… It is back in full swing this weekend and we’re here for ALL of the slope battles.

Saturday looks to be a PACKED day of races on the slopes and we have our eyes on Katharina Liensberger.

The world slalom champion from Austria is going up against Lena Dürr from Germany. 

Liensberger is the favourite here and we’re sticking with her to grab this W at -150. 

Canadian Laurence St-Germain, the number eight ranked slalom specialist, is matched up evenly on the moneyline with Austrian Chiara Mair. 

The Quebec native had her best season in 2019-20 where she totalled four top-15 finishes, so let’s bet with some Canadian pride this weekend and take St-Germain on the moneyline at -120.

‍

Mikaela Shiffrin will be racing in the U.S. for the first time in two years and Petra Vlhova is coming off of a sweet win over Shiffrin in the World Cup in Finland just last week. 

The sportsbooks have this one DEAD EVEN.

Ugh… I don't know about this one… But I think we’re feeling a revenge victory on home slope for Shiffrin and taking her on the moneyline at -120.

May the sports betting gods be with us for these too close to call races.

Now let’s recap our picks.

We’re taking Liensberger on the moneyline at -150, St-Germain at -120, and Shiffrin at -120.

And I know so many of you are asking...

Where do I watch women’s sports? When is it happening? 

Chill.
