Västervik- Dackarna

 

Västervik (42)

  1. Krzystof Kasprzak
  2. Tomasz Jedrzejak
  3. Przemyslaw Pawlicki
  4. Hans Andersen
  5. Peter Ljung
  6. Ludvig Lindgren
  7. Mathias Thörnblom

Dackarna (48)

  1. Patryk Dudek
  2. Joonas Kylmäkorpi
  3. Nicki Pedersen (K)
  4. Dennis Andersen
  5. Alexandr Loktaev
  6. Michael Jepsen Jensen
  7. Robin Aspegren

The battle of the bottom. Before the season both teams were expected to be fighting at the top of the standings but

both teams have really underperformed this season. Västervik have decided to leave their best rider Troy Batchelor

outside the team this week. For Västervik it is the same situation as last week. They HAVE TO win to avoid last place in the standings.

 

Västervik lost the first meeting between these two teams with 42-48 so they need to win with 9p or more to get the aggregated bonus point.

Dackarna have Loktaev back in the team. Loktaev returns from injury so his status is a bit unknown but he rode superbly before his injury.

Västervik's weakness is positions 5-7 and those three riders have not really been good so far this year.

 

 

Vargarna- Rospiggarna

 

Vargarna (38)

  1. Martin Vaculik
  2. Jason Doyle
  3. Peter Kildemand
  4. Pontus Aspgren
  5. Adrian Miedzinski
  6. Billy Forsberg
  7. Ricky Kling

Rospiggarna (52)

  1. Andreas Jonsson
  2. Jonas Davidsson
  3. Mads Korneliussen
  4. Andzejs Lebedevs
  5. Kim Nilsson
  6. Chris Harris
  7. Timo Lahti

Two of the biggest surprises in this year's Elitserien, both Vargarna and Rospiggarna were together with Smederna expected to fighting each

other to avoid relegation. However both Vargarna and Rospiggarna have been doing very good so far so this meeting will be extra interesting

and would have been my choice for tv-meeting. Rospiggarna should be able to at least bring home the bonus point but I think it will be super close

regarding the win of the meeting. The question for Vargarna is how Miedzinski is feeling after his crash in the SEC at Güstrow.

 

Both Vargarna's and Rospiggarna's tracks are quite similar, short, tight and technical so Rospiggarna's riders should be able to handle the track well.

I say slight advantage to Rospiggarna due a more balanced team with Vargarna having a more top heavy team with Vaculik, Doyle, Kildemand and Miedzinski.

 

 

Elit Vetlanda - Indianerna

 

Elit Vetlanda (42)
Tai Woffinden
Emil Sayfutdinov
Jaroslaw Hampel
Tomas H Jonasson
Janusz Kolodziej
Jacob Thorssell
Magnus Karlsson

 

Indianerna (48)
Fredrik Lindgren (K)
Kenneth Bjerre
Piotr Protasiewicz
Mikael Max
Niels-Kristian Iversen
Joel Andersson
Antonio Lindbäck

 

There isn't really that much to say about this meeting. Vetlanda are super hard to beat at their home track since gating is everything on this track.

Indianerna have a very good team as well and have (with last week as an exception) done very good lately but I still think that Vetlanda

should be able to win without too much problem although Indianerna have a descent chance to grab the bonus point.

Maybe Jack has been watching the Danish speedway as they always had him down as Lokatev

Yeah it's weird as Polish commentators call him Loktaev. Maybe they are wrong and its really Lokatev but he has it spelt Loktaev on his leathers in Poland so I would assume he knows his own name :).

It's a little known fact that Zdenek Kudrna's surname was actually pronounced Blenkinsop-Smythe.

Funny old game speedway :)

Sam seems to be having trouble with the concept that this match is actually a TEAM match and team mates are not attempting to take their own team mates.

He has done that about three times tonight :rofl:

Looks like Jack is back with a posh accent.

Who is Lokatev is he as good as Loktaev?

No excuse really. They are commentating from a studio with the same info we see. Heat 10 was the same. "Locatev" :sad: No, it's "Lock- tie- ef" guys.

Loktaev or Loktajev, pronounced Lock-tai-ef i think.

 

Also it seems that said Loktaev still have problems with his shoulder.

You know that,i know that,but in Denmark they always as far as i have seen spelt it Lokatev!!!! Thought it was a mistake at first but it went on and on like that.....

 

Actually looking at the Outrup v Holstebro programme from 2012,which was the last time i saw him in Denmark his name is spelt Lokajev

Sorry Al but that's a bit out of order.

I would get annoyed if somebody used my name incorrectly especially if they knew how to pronounce it.

Sam has an excuse as he is an idiot but the other guy :)

Perhaps a combined effort from Eurosport and Ghostwalker can get those SEC start babes "decorating" the Elitserien. :lol: They really were a breath of fresh air in Gustrow.

 

NO WAY!!!!!

 

I am very grateful that we don't have any start girls in Sweden and do no want anything like that in Elitserien.

Far play to MJJ for not laying his bike down.

Its weird, I know it's France too but still say Frank!

 

As for Loktaev, he's Russian, they have a different alphabet so the spelling is a loose translation at best.
