The Giro di Lombardia closes the cycling and Fantacycling season ; the last effort before a well-deserved rest for everyone, even for you fantamanager. In the meantime, however, there are the latest market hits to be made and the decisive choices to end the year in the best possible way. Here are the favorites among the big names:

Primoz Roglic (Jumbo Visma), after his thrilling victory at the Giro dell'Emilia , has already declared that Lombardia are a goal even if in the past they can only "boast" a seventh place finish two years ago. Watch out for teammate Jonas Vingegaard , second in the Tour, and the ideal shoulder to control the rest of the squad.

The Deceuninck Quick Step arrives at the start with a squadron and at least three captains: the world champion Julian Alaphilippe , Joao Almeida and Remco Evenepoel , awaited by a convincing test on a demanding mileage. The question is always the same: will they be able to live together and help each other to bring home the classic?

In recent weeks, the doubt of Tadej Pogacar (UAE Emirates) has arisen for many fantamanagers, who appeared in difficulty in the latest releases. The advice, if you have him in pink, is to deploy him. If you want to change it, look at riders of at least equal value.

Then the long line of possible favorites starts from Great Britain with Adam Yates (Ineos Grenadiers) and his brother Simon (Team Bike Exchange), passes from France with David Gaudu (Groupama Fdj), Romain Bardet (Team Dsm) and B enoit Cosnefroy ( Ag2R), arrives in Holland for an always combative Bauke Mollema (Trek Segafredo), crosses Spain with Alejandro Valverde (Team Movistar) and returns to Ireland with Daniel Martin (Israel Start Up Nation), in his last career race. We are ready to bet that he will try to finish with a flourish by remembering that he, Il Lombardia , has already won it (seven years ago).
