Björn Ferry on Sweden's medal chances in the WC: "Betting on four"

Hanna Öberg, Elvira Öberg, Sebastian Samuelsson and Martin Ponsilouma go out on track for Sweden - the same as last year.

- It was Linn Persson or Hanna Öberg it was between, now it was Öberg.

It is the strongest team and they have the best chance of winning, I think, he says.

- But Norway is the big favourite, even if the ladies are not as strong as the men.

There is a good chance for a medal, but taking the gold will be tough for Sweden.

"That which is the charm"

After Hanna Öberg, who starts, Elvira Öberg follows, then Ponsiluoma and Samuelsson are responsible for the finish.

- There are more teams that are good.

That is the allure of the discipline.

Elvira Öberg is second overall in the World Cup and is one of the medal hopefuls for Sweden.

- I want to be a little cautious, but I am betting on four medals so as not to have too great expectations.

A good start is important.

The sprint on Friday for the ladies is the key to a medal, he says.

SVT broadcasts the mixed relay starting at 2.15 pm on SVT1.
