At Monday's press conference, the Swedish teams for the individual distance races over 10 and 15 km freestyle were presented.
In addition to the medalists from the skiathlon Ebba Andersson and Frida Karlsson, Jonna Sundling and Maja Dahlqvist also take their place in the ladies' team.
- Jonna usually recovers well when she is in this kind of situation.
I think she can be at the top, says women's coach Stefan Thomson.
Edvin Anger, William Poromaa, Jens Burman and Johan Häggström drive on the men's side.
Notably, Calle Halfvarsson, who has been in the top six in all races so far, is missing.
- Calle has competed a lot and it is total wear and tear that we have discussed.
He chooses to have a few quieter days and load up for the relay and five miles, says men's coach Anders Högberg.
Sweden currently has six medals in the championship, three of which are gold.
Should a gold be salvaged, it will be the first time ever that Sweden has won more than three golds in a skiing WC.
