The Eurovision Song Contest has kicked off for 2026 and this year has brought controversy and “car crash” performances.
From the countries boycotting the event due to Israel’s participation to UK entry Look Mum No Computer’s “embarrassing” show, the contest has been hitting the headlines all week.
As we approach the grand final on Saturday, odds have been fluctuating on who could be crowned the winner - although one entry has remained at the top of the rankings.
Ten acts from both semi-finals made it through to the final, where they will compete against the Big Four and reigning champions Austria - but who are the bookmakers’ favourites to win?
Ahead of the final, the bookies are tipping Finland as the favourites to be the champions, according to Betway.
Finland is represented by Linda Lampenius x Pete Parkkonen with their song Liekinheitin this year.
If they were to come out on top, it would be the second triumph for the country, following Lordi's win in 2006.
Also in the running are Greece at 9/2 and Denmark at 6/1.
Of the twenty-five countries competing for the prize, the UK are currently placed 14th with odds of 150/1.
