The three candidates vying to stage the 2025 Alpine World Ski Championships will learn their fate when the International Ski Federation (FIS) Council meets to select the host of the event tomorrow.

Crans-Montana in Switzerland, Garmisch-Partenkirchen in Germany and Saalbach in Austria have all submitted bids for the World Championships in five years' time.

Members of the FIS Council will meet remotely to decide the venue for its flagship event in 2025, while Trondheim in Norway is set to be granted the hosting rights for that year's Nordic World Ski Championships as it is the only candidate.

Delegations from the candidates will have one last chance to pitch their respective bid before the Council takes a vote.

The FIS said the announcement will be streamed online.

The FIS sent the final report from its inspection group to candidates earlier this month, but it has not been made public by the worldwide governing body.

According to the FIS, the report "is the result of a nearly year and a half long process during which the experts evaluated the information submitted by the candidates in response to the FIS questionnaire and further information provided by each of the candidates during their presentations at an evaluation meeting with the FIS Inspection Group in October 2019".

The FIS Council had also been expected to approve Krasnoyarsk as the host of the 2025 Freestyle Ski and Snowboard World Championships at tomorrow's meeting but the Russian city's bid was postponed because of sanctions imposed on the country by the World Anti-Doping Agency.

The sanctions, which prevent Russia from hosting or bidding for major events for four years, are not due to come into force until the Court of Arbitration for Sport rules on the appeal from the Russian Anti-Doping Agency.
