Place and time, what is remarkable?
The main tournament in the life of every athlete starts on March 22. The skaters are looking forward to it with great anticipation, since last year the championship was not held due to the coronavirus pandemic. In addition, the results of the drawing will determine the participants for the 2022 World Cup and the next Winter Olympic Games, which will be held in Beijing.
This time the competition will be the Ericsson Globe arena in Stockholm, Sweden. The city will host the world championship for the 11th time. Due to the continuing danger of a pandemic, the organizers have prepared a special “bubble” for athletes to minimize the possibility of getting sick. It is important that the most impressive group will go from Russia – the team is taking 17 skaters to Sweden.

The composition of the Russian national team
The national team goes to the World Championships without a flag and anthem, but with extreme motivation and a desire to prove their worth. In addition, it is Russia that carries the largest delegation, which will help fight for victory in the overall standings of the competition.
- Mikhail Kolyada and Evgeny Semenenko will perform in the men's individual category. Both perform under the leadership of the legendary coach Alexei Mishin. The former has a solid track record, while the latter is just beginning to gain worldwide recognition;
- In the individual category, women have a more impressive representation – Anna Shcherbakova, Alexandra Trusova and Elizaveta Tuktamysheva. And all three athletes go to Sweden exclusively for gold medals;

- Three sports couples will try to bring the highest standard medals to Russia. Alexandra Boykova and Dmitry Kozlovsky took gold at the last European Championship. Anastasia Mishina and Alexander Gallyamov want to achieve their first serious successes. And Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov have long been “veterans” of major tournaments;

World Championship favorites
All athletes go to the World Championships with one goal – to win gold medals. But there are also favorites that will be incredibly difficult to stop on their way to that dream.
- Men's individual category. It will be very difficult for athletes from Russia to prove themselves, since there are representatives of other countries in the tops. The main contender for gold is American Nathan Chen, who won the last two championships. Japanese Yuzuru Hanyu and Frenchman Kevin Aymoz will try to prevent him;
- Women's individual category. But in the women's category, the Russian national team has great chances. Anna Shcherbakova is considered the main favorite of the competition. And experts call her compatriot Alexandra Trusova and Riku Kihira from Japan as applicants;
- Sports couples. Another type of competition in which Russia is doing well. Each of the couples has the opportunity to swing at the medals of the highest standard. But the main favorite of the tournament is still the Chinese pair – Sui Wenjing and Han Cong;
- Dancing on Ice. And here the favorite of the championship was a couple from Russia – Victoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov won silver at the last championship of the planet, and now they are following the victory. But the Americans will literally step on the heels, Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donoghue have good chances.
In which bookmakers to bet on the World Figure Skating Championships?
Many bookmakers managed to put up a line for figure skating competitions. Let's figure out in which bookmakers it is most convenient to place bets on this tournament.
- Betcity bookmaker is one of the most popular options. Firstly, the bookmaker offers the richest and widest line. Secondly, you can separately put on the total of gold medals of the Russian national team. In addition, the bookmaker offers increased odds.
- BC 1xBet is another great option for betting on figure skating. Here, the user will not be able to place a bet on the number of gold medals won by representatives of Russia. But you can try to predict which of the athletes will be on the podium.
The rest of the legal bookmakers pay minimal attention to figure skating, or leave no room for it in the line at all. That is why the value of Betcity and 1xBet for fans of this sport instantly increases several times.
