I think if they have three clear leaders of the teamafter nationals they will send the same team, but I can see several situations where they would not.
Firstly if one skater that they want on the team misses nationals and/or europeans due to injuries or sickness and that person got healthy in time for worlds they would switch.
Secondly if someone "bombs" europeans (failing to medal) and they have several strong alternates they might do some sort of skate off.
Thirdly if the results are verry close between nr3 and nr4 at nationals and they have had similair results throughout the season I can see them reevaluating which of them to send to worlds (3rd goes to europeans in this senario). If this coincide with the second scenario Im almost certain they would switch.
I think this is likely.
