First run in 1907, the Scheldeprijs is the oldest one-day race in Flanders and traditionally ends in a mass sprint. The previous winners is a roll call of great fast men from Mario Cipollini to triple-winner Mark Cavendish, who misses out this year.

In the absence of last year's winner Jasper Phillipsen, the role of favourite this year will go to Tim Merlier (Soudal Quick-Step) with Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco–AlUla), Danny Van Poppel (Bora–Hansgrohe), Arvid de Kleijn (Tudor Pro Cycling) and Arnaud Demare (Arkéa–B&B Hotels) also all in the mix.

The race kicks off in Terneuzen in the Netherlands before crossing into Belgium near the town of Essen on its way to the three laps of the 17 km finishing circuit around the town of Schoten. To add a little more drama each of these laps features the Broekstraat, a short sector of cobbled road in keeping with the classic theme in northern Europe before the traditional finish on Churchilllaan street.

Read on to see how to catch the action from wherever you live.
