Always good to speculate! My guess (in order of certainty):

Froome, Porte, Kiryienka, Boasson Hagen, Lopez, Thomas, Knees, Eisel, Siutsou

I don’t expect they’ll change too much from the Dauphine squad.

Pete Kennaugh had a good ride at the Dauphine, but I think they’ll opt for more experience in leading the peloton with Knees and Eisel.

Stannard can’t be far off the line-up, but Siutsou showed he’s in good nick at the Route du Sud and would offer more on the uphill bits, so I’m taking a punt on him for a place.

Then again, they might opt for more climbing support with the likes of Uran and Henao...

I see the squad has now been announced -

Stannard and Kennaugh instead of Knees and Eisel

Movistar will be ones to watch as well. Nairo Quintana is a good outside bet for a result.
