Alena does have edge over Sasha in short program, not much but 2-3 point at least. Alena get 77 in her senior debut while Sasha 74. Alena could get 79 or maybe 80 in GP even without 3A in short. She get much higher GOE also higher PCS as well. In junior she already scored 76 once while Sasha never go above 75 yet. But in free skate Sasha will destroy the gap. If Alena does 3A in FS the gap will be much closer though. If she does it in SP as well then they could tie.The difference now is that Sasha has four quads, and one of the quads replaces a 2A, and her quad consistency appears to be higher than last year. Alena only really had a shot last season if Sasha missed her jumps, which is becoming less likely (somewhat scarily). She also doesn't have an edge in the short over Sasha yet until she puts a 3A in the short too. Until that happens, it's only really Alina and Rika that have the potential numbers to possibly catch Sasha unawares. I'm not sold on Anna yet.
