Eurovision 2010 Odds Make UK And Ireland Big Prices For Success Tuesday 26 January 2010 at 12:03 The Eurovision Song Contest may be not until May 29th but bookies are already betting on who will win in the Eurovision 2010 Odds. This year Eurovision will be held in Oslo and the UK will be hoping to improve on last year despite their entry now being part of the Subababes!
UK Looking To Improve On Fifth Place Last Year
It is unclear if the UK will go down the route of Your Country Needs You like last year, where Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote the song, but that produced the UK’s best position in years of fifth. UK would certainly look a good bet if that process is repeated and as there will also be lots of patriotic money they look a very good early bet at 25/1 with Boylesports. Republic Of Ireland have struggled in recent years and they are unsurprisingly deemed less likely winners than UK and can be backed at 33/1 with Boylesports.
Ireland May Not Even Qualify For Finals For Another Five Years
Boylesports, being an Irish bookie, are offering plenty of specials about Ireland’s chances at Eurovision 2010. Boylesports offer just evens that Ireland don’t even qualify for the Eurovision Finals whilst you can get 4/1 with Boylesports on Ireland winning in any of the next five years. If you think Ireland will struggle so much that they don’t even qualify for the Eurovision Finals in the next five years then you can get 16/1 on that with Boylesports.

Azerbaijan
Safura represents Azerbaijan and will sing the song Drip Drop. She may do well and has been supported into one of the favourites in the Eurovision Odds betting.
Bet £20 Get £40
Israel
Harel Skaat represents Israel at Eurovision 2010 with the ballad Milim. Another each way bet at the price although may not be strong enough to win overall.

Norway
Norway are the early Eurovision Odds favourite with a slower more thoughtful ballad than the Alexander Rybak Fairytale which was triumphant at Eurovision last year in Moscow.
Bet £20 Get £40
Croatia
Girl group Feminnem are the choice to fly the flag for Croatia in Eurovision 2010. The song is Lako Je Sve and they do a preety good job.
£50 Free Cash
Germany
This song has a good chance and is at least one of the most original songs in the competition. Reminiscent of Lily Allen and Amy Macdonald, if the Euro Zone get it Lena Meyer and Satellite could well win Eurovision 2010 for Germany. Back it each way today.
Bet £20 Get £40
Denmark
In A Moment like this is the Danish song for Eurovision 2010 performed by the hand holding Chanee & Tomas Nevergreen. A typical Eurovision song that will be well received in Norway, a good bet.
£50 Free Cash
Belgium
Tom Dice sings Me and My Guitar in the style of James Blunt for Belgium. Unlikely to put Belgium on the Eurovision map despite being towards the head of the betting.
Bet £20 Get £40
Ireland
Two very poor years and two very poor songs from the normally entertaining and competitive Irish.
Niamh Kavanagh who won for the Emerald Isle in 1993 with In Your Eyes has been chosen to represent Ireland.
Bet £20 Get £40
Romania
Playing With Fire is the entry for Eurovision 2010 from Romania by Paula Seling and Ovi. This Eurovision song is fancied by a lot of Eurovision forums.
Bet £20 Get £40
Iceland
The song title is French yet Hera Bjork sings in English and represents Iceland. Her country could do with some good news and this may be one of the more commercial entries.
Bet £20 Get £40
Portugal
Filipa Azevado sings Ha Dias Assim for Portugal Eurovision 2010, sounds a touch like Maria Carey with a lot of key changes.

Russia
Russia have chosen Peter Nalitch and Band to represent them at Eurovision 2010. A folky tune Lost and Forgotten sounds like a communist workers song.
Bet £20 Get £40
Switzerland
Michael Von der Heide sings for Switzerland, the song is ok but the Swiss do not win much and that is unlikely to change at Eurovision 2010
Bet £20 Get £40
UK
The Your Country Needs You show decided that newcomer Josh Dubovie will represent the UK at Eurovision 2010. He will be singing the Pete Waterman/Mike Stock written "That Sounds Good To Me", unfortunately it dosent.
