Moldovans Gabriele Goffredo and Anna Matus are the couple to beat for others aspiring the title in this year's World Latin. After all, they are the defending champions and were defeated only once during 2017: by Armen Tsaturyan and Svetlana Gudyno, RUS, in the European Championship in Cambrils, ESP, in April. It is precisely this circumstance which makes the upcoming World Championship so compelling. Both couples faced off against each other only three weeks ago, in the 2017 GrandSlam Moscow: the Moldovans prevailed - but only by two decimal points. That's nothing!

Two German couples should also be considered very serious contenders in this event: Timur Imametdinov - Nina Bezzubova started their year off with a bang by defeating Marius-Andrei Balan - Khrystyna Moshenska in the German Championship. Coming in ahead of Marius-Andrei and Khrystyna in Vienna, AUT, would bring it to a successful conclusion for Timur and Nina, who danced one of their best GrandSlam legs in Moscow, coming very close to the 190 points in the final.

Marius-Andrei and Khrystyna have not danced in Moscow and appeared only in three World Opens, where none of the above couples had entered, since their second-place finish to Gabriele and Anna in the GrandSlam Stuttgart. That was in August.

If Goffredo - Matus should come in first, they will win the title for a third consecutive time, a feat that was only achieved by two other couples in the sixty years of WDSF history: by Aniello Langella and Khrystyna Moshenska, ITA, and by Franco Formica and Oksana Nikiforova, GER.
