Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta Ciclista Del Sol 2020, Spain, February 19 - February 23

Haig is not great at the ITT - Not as good as S.Yates but better than Chaves - A good ride can get him second but a bad ride could see him drop to fourth - Not to hilly and Affini is favorite - Have to more thoroughly check the profile, though you trust Spanish profiles.
I'm pretty confident that he will get 2nd overall unless he puncture on the small gravel sector. The course is short and punchy.

The main climb on the road is quite serious with some nasty double digit parts. It's like 1.5 km of 8% according to mapmyride.
 
IMO Jakob is a small favourite for the ITT, if you consider the way he rode in last year's similar ITT. I also doubt that Haig will overtake Landa on a course like this. And Ion has too much gap to cover to catch Haig. In hindsight, Fuglsang's pace setting yesterday probably cost Izagirre a podium spot.
