THE TACTICAL READ
WHO IT SUITS
The sprinters who survived the Pyrenees and the Massif Central, on their first clear chance since the mountains thinned the fast men out.
WHAT TO WATCH
Whether the surviving sprinters' teams still have the bodies to control a break, a day after the Bastille Day climbs and with heavy legs all round.
ROADMAN PREDICTION
A bunch sprint, but not a certain one. The fast men's teams should reel in any move, though legs this deep into the race make the chase less tidy than it looks.

Anthony’s daily Tour podcast lands here on the evening of the stage.
