Im going with 2 first options.

Hell will freeze over before Andy finish before him in this year's Tour :D Most likely Froome will though.

He will be well prepared and team will be strong but Froome simply seems stronger atm.

Pfff, the obvious answer is Andy is better of course. Can't you guys see it? He's been lying in wait and steadily improving, getting ready for the 100th tour showdown. He will fly away from Contador when they hit the mountains.

:p

Oh and another option: Sky has better medical staff ;)

Do you realize how many times other riders' fans could bewail because of that during 07-11?

Majka and Rogers gave me hope. I still believe he can win it.

But he needs to be 100% otherwise Froome will destroy him

Wow, Fleur took such a democratic stance. In fact many people can think that Froome would never have beaten Contador of the 09 TdF/ 11 Giro patterns. However, others are totally entitled to assume that Contador would have won 0 GT's if Froome of 12&13 had participated in them, so... A monumental battle awaits us. A mythical one. Both won't be able to look perfectly. Both of them can be prepared extremely well but their standarts, but one will look magically and the second will look only very well in comparison to the main opponent. Honestly, I don't believe in Alex too much. But Purito can surprise everyone.

But... Andy for the win there's no doubt about that.
