Les Rousses (FRA) wanted to take over the World Cup Final, but was turned down because the TV window would overlap with the Alpine World Cup Final. Thus it will probably have been that after Falun.

Jess Diggins looked poor today. Nepryaeva still has over 200 points in the bank with just 3 races left to go. It's going to be tight.

Diggins and classic just doesn't work this season. She will have to try to take as many points as possible in the first bonus sprints on Saturday. The 100 points at the finish will definitely go to Johaug. 
The main points have to come next week in Falun. If possible win the prologue in the sprint (will be hard against Sundling) and then at least a podium in the sprint and individual start on Saturday.
Her disadvantage will be that she will have a hard time to get big points in the mixed relays, because the male part is probably not strong enough. 
The gap should ideally not be bigger than 150 points before Falun so that she still has a chance.

Therese Johaug will end her career after the 30K tomorrow:

In one hand of course not surprising, on the other hand it's not like I expected a "tomorrow is my last professional race" :p

World Cup finals won't be replaced, so Falun next week will be the end of the (World Cup) season. That definitely increases the chances for Nepryaeva to hold and get her title.

To be realistisc, she should be able to do it, Diggins would have to be well beyond herself tomorrow. I saw the sprint in Falun next week is also classic, there it will probably be nothing with a victory.
If Klaebo doesn't start in Falun, Richard Jouve can still win the Sprint World Cup, it's the only open ranking then. He is currently 95 points behind Klaebo. For the individual sprint there are still 115 points, for the team sprint there should be another 25 points.
