Route
The route was 152.9 kilometres (95.0 mi) long, following the second half of the men's course from Bastogne to Liège, and featured 10 classified climbs.[2]
Pre-race favorites
In pre-race analysis, Dutch rider Demi Vollering and Italian champion Elisa Longo Borghini were identified as top favorites. Vollering had two previous wins at the race (2021 and 2023), and strong recent form with a second-place finish at La Flèche Wallonne Femmes. Longo Borghini was coming off a win at Brabantse Pijl and has twice been runner-up at Liège–Bastogne–Liège. Reigning world champion Lotte Kopecky, winner of numerous other classics, has cited the race as a key objective, but some analysts have doubted whether she is suited to the longer climbs of Liège. Puck Pieterse, coming off a win at La Flèche Wallonne, and Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, winner of Paris–Roubaix were also considered strong contenders. Other riders mentioned in pre-race coverage included Anna van der Breggen, Kasia Niewiadoma, Juliette Labous, and Liane Lippert.[3][4]
