De 102de Scheldeprijs kende een eenvoudig wedstrijdverhaal. Na acht kilometer ontsnapten zes renners uit het peloton: Balykin, Bazzana, Fedi, Ghyselinck, Gruzdev en Rowe. Jimmy Engoulvent probeerde zijn wagon aan te haken, kwam tot op een handvol seconden, maar kon nooit aansluiten. De kopgroep kreeg een maximale voorsprong van 5'10". Ongeveer halfweg koers stonden de vluchters voor een overweg, maar ze mochten van de wedstrijdjury met dezelfde voorsprong opnieuw vertrekken, op dat moment om en bij de minuut. Ze kregen vervolgens echter opnieuw meer ruimte en bleven voorop tot in de laatste van drie lokale rondes van 16,4 kilometer elk.
Luke Rowe demarreerde op zeven kilometer van de streep. Fedi waagde nadien nog een wanhoopspoging, maar alle vluchters werden opgeslokt door het peloton. Marcel Kittel bleek de sterkste in de massasprint en won de Scheldeprijs voor het derde jaar op rij. Tyler Farrar legde beslag op de tweede plaats, Danny Van Poppel vervolledigde het podium. Kenny Dehaes werd zestiende.
