Love Island 2020 winners Paige and Finn on the couple they're backing this year so far

Love Island 2020 winners Finn and Paige revealed the contestants they’re backing to do very well this season as the drama begins to kick off in the villa.

The happy couple revealed they have been keeping up with the season so far and said they think there are a few genuine couples forming at last.

Speaking to IrelandAM, they said: "In the villa this year we think we already have got quite genuine couples."

When asked who their favourites are so far, the pair agreed that Jake and Liberty will do very well.

Finn said: "Jake and Liberty are our favourites. I think he got a bit of cold feet and was like "aw do I like her as much as I think I do?" and this and that but I think that will pass.

"I think he just got a bit like 'oh this is going quite quick', but that will go and I think they will do brilliant."

Speaking about recent viewer’s opinions about contestants with game plans, they said they don’t think any of the contestants are playing each other.

Finn explained: "It’s really hard to go in there with a game plan when you never know what’s around the corner.

"So you can’t prepare and say 'I’m going to be with this girl until this date', or 'I’m gonna wait for two weeks and then get with this girl' because you never know what’s happening next.

"We saw that with Shannon, two nights in there’s a dumping, so you never can really play it like that."

Meanwhile, things are set to get even more tense in the villa tonight with the arrival of Teddy Soares, who said viewers can expect to see him 'stirring a few pots and causing a bit of a ruckus'.

Love Island continues on ITV and Virgin Media tonight at 9pm.
