Russia

Dima Bilan

"Believe" is the title of the Russian song entry and If you do believe have a bet now. A very good chance and the current favourite. The bookmakers who dont get much wrong with these types of events think the Russians are going to win. A £10 bet returns £50 if the trophy goes back to the USSR.

Serbia

Jelena Tomašević

The hosts and therefore automatically qualify. In sport the country holding the event often do very well, we expect Serbia to be one of the top countries. The song "oro" was written by one of the presenters who will host the event.

Armenia

Sirusho

"Qele Qele" is the song and the bookmakers seem to like Armenia. Finding the country on the map is the hardest task. We like the sound of the song and the bookmakers agree . A £10 pound bet returns £60.

Ireland

Dustin The Turkey

Dana a former winner of Eurovision and from the emerald isle is up in arms about the choice of a singing Turkey. Keep a close eye on what price the Irish bookmakers are compared to other firms, Sky Bet have taken a stand against this song and are now the biggest price. If you are Irish or like the song you should have a bet with them.

Greece

Kalomoira

Kalomoira are the Greek entry with the song "Secret Combination". They may have the number to win Eurovision with this tune. A good each way bet with this bookmaker who are paying out on the top 4.

Finland

Teräsbetoni

From the country that gave you Lordi in 2006, we now have more rockers in the shape of Teräsbetoni. If you like Iron Maiden the Finns will get your vote.

Vodka is the name of the song and we suggest a drink whilst listening to it. More disco euro pop.

Iceland

Euroband

Euroband are the singers This Is My Life is the song. Euro Pop may be the thing in Reykjavik but this is a poor tired tune. No sign of a red book either.

Andy Abraham

Solo singer Andy Abraham came out on top with the BBC viewers. The song is well written and if Europe wants to choose quality over cheesy then the UK may do well. The UK public voted for it, will Europe follow suit.

The Eurovision Song Contest Is Bigger And Better


29/04/08
As we get closer to the experience that is Eurovision is a clear picture emerging?, The Russian Eurovision entry seems to have the bookies running for cover. The vocal is well sung and may very well justify its place at the head of the market.

Can the hosts Serbia win?, the home crowd in Belgrade will certainly vociferously support it. A dark horse may be Georgia at a massive 80/1 with Sportingbet and Paddy Power. This looks a good wager, a £10 win bet returns £810. Dont forget you can back countries each way to finish in the top 3 or 4 depending on which bookmaker you choose.


Advised: Georgia each way at 80/1 with Sportingbet and Paddy Power for the Eurovision Song Contest.

23/03/09

Even if is the title of the UK song performed by former bin man Andy Abraham. We hope he does well and the song is pretty good and way overpriced at 125/1 with VC Bet. If he does badly expect the normal tabloid headlines focusing on his former profession. Andy is wasting his time, UK song is rubbish, Bin the judges etc.


19/03/08
The format in 2008 consists of two semi finals and then the main competition. If you have any strong fancies prior to these Semi Finals you should bet them prior to the night as you will get a much bigger price.
The UK, Serbia, France, Germany and Spain have a bye to the final. Paddy Power, Bet365, SkyBet are normally on the ball when it comes to having all the prices.
1st Semi Final:
Montenegro
Israel

Does the order on which position you sing at make any difference?. The Uk are allocated the 2nd slot of the evening. So Andy Abraham the former bin man will not have long to wait backstage. Serbia the hosts will sing in position 23.


With the Irish entry Dustin the turkey receiving the majority of headlines all bettors should keep a close eye on how the Irish bookmakers (Paddy Power and Boylesports)react and price the contestants.

They more than any other firms will want to get the results right, and will be following the markets and the movements very closely. They will have big liablitys on the turkey song and will be looking to find a winner to beat Dustin.


01/03/08
In May, the eyes of Europe will be focused on Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, for the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest. A record entry of the new europe sees 43 countries taking part in the 53rd running. Terry Wogan from Radio 2 will be suited and booted and lets see which country gets nil pois.
The UK decided to put their trust in reality tv singer Andy Abraham. The best constructed song by a likeable man with a great voice. The Irish have chosen a real turkey, which other nations will follow suit?
Latvia at a big price have chosen a pirate inspired song called wolves of the sea. It has nothing to do with the black country football team managed by Mick Mcarthy even though i am sure Mick would like to compete in europe. The tune is catchy, appropriate for a song about the sea. This is worth backing now with Paddy Power at 12/1.

To get a free bet on your countrys song many bookmakers offer free bets when you open an account. Paddy Power have a good opening offer.
