Eurovision Song Contest Betting 2009
Saturday 16 May 2009 at 16:00

Eurovision Song Contest Betting 2009 has been extremely interesting in giving an insight into which countries need to be followed on Saturday night at the Eurovision final.

Norway Hoping To Justify Their Odds

The two countries who have been very well backed this week with the bookies are Norway and the UK. Norway have always been favourites to win Eurovision 2009 but have been very well backed this week and are now just 11/10 with Totesport and Blue Square. Most bookies are offering odds on prices about Norway.

Money For UK Says They Have Massive Chance

The UK may have been unfancied months ago when they were as big as 40/1 but a massive gamble has taken place this week and the patriotic money means that the best price the UK can now be backed at is 12/1 and that price is available with Bet365, Stan James, Coral and Ladbrokes. Jade Ewen will be singing the Andrew Lloyd Webber written song and she is expected to be one of the most popular acts.

Don’t Write Off These Countries

Other countries likely to do well according to the odds include Greece and Turkey, Greece are the second favourites to win and can be backed at 6/1 with Boylesports, Totesport and Blue Square whilst Turkey are fairly steady at 12/1 with Boylesports and Stan James. Others to look out for are Bosnia and Herzegovina at 18/1 with Stan James and Azerbaijan who are 14/1 with Boylesports. To view all of the Eurovision Odds click on any of the bookie links above.

	Eurovision Betting	Vote!	Odds	Bookie
	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		4.5

	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. £50 Free Cash		6.5

	Norway Norway are one of 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. Didrik Solli-Tangen sings My Heart Is Yours. Bet £20 Get £40		13

	Armenia Eva Rivas sings for Armenia accompanied by a hooded monk. A good each way bet at the price. £25 Free Bet		13

	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 pretty good job. £50 Free Cash		13.8

	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		15

	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		15.7

	Greece Giorgos Alkaios & Friends sing a traditional Greek song with lots of shouting. Bet £20 Get £40		17

	Sweden This is My Life is the Swedish offering sung by a breathless and over excited Anna Bergendahl. Bet £20 Get £40		21

	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		21

	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 again and performs Its For You. Bet £20 Get £40		41

	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		41

	Turkey We Could Be The Same by Manga looks to have a decent chance for Turkey. They are at least trying to win the contest and not just offering the same old traditional songs unlike so many other countries. Bet £20 Get £40		41

	Ukraine Bet £20 Get £40		46

	Spain Have Spain ever had a good Eurovision song? Maybe 2011 will be better. Bet £20 Get £40		51

	Slovakia Slovakia have Kristina who looks the Eurovision part but the song lacks way behind her. Bet £20 Get £40		51

	Belarus 3+2 with the song Far Away was we thought the original Belarus 2010 Eurovision offering but like a few countries they have changed their song and now sing Butterflies. £200 Free Cash To Bet With!		51

	Georgia Sofia Nizharadze and the song Shine are the 2010 Eurovision offering from Georgia. £25 Free Bet		67

	Moldova Sun Stroke Project & Olia Tira is a stupid name for a band but they do not do a bad job for Moldova. Bet £20 Get £40		67

	Cyprus The Cyprus Eurovision 2010 entry is Life Looks Better In Spring but it wont sound any better if we have to listen to this. Bet £20 Get £40		67

	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		67

	France To Be Announced, presumably they will enter? Bet £20 Get £40		67

	Albania Juliana Pasha travels from Albania for Eurovision 2010, a wasted journey. Bet £20 Get £40		81

	Lithuania Lithuania must have asked for passers by in the street when forming Inculto. Everything about the band and the song is terrible. £200 Free Cash To Bet With!		81

	Serbia Serbia offer a traditional song which many commentators think will go down well in Norway. Milan Stankovic is the singer accompanied by gypsy dancers. Bet £20 Get £40		81

	Portugal Filipa Azevado sings Ha Dias Assim for Portugal Eurovision 2010, sounds a touch like Maria Carey with a lot of key changes. £200 Free Cash To Bet With!		101

	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		101

	Estonia The name Malcolm Lincoln and Manpower 4 sounds like a firm of industrial cleaners however they are Estonia's representatives in Eurovision, very odd. Bet £20 Get £40		101

	Latvia The Latvian Eurovision entry is titled "What For - our sentiment exactly. The singer is accompanied by some washer women and another accordionist Bet £20 Get £40		101

	Malta Thea Garrett sings My Dream for the Maltese. She can sing and should make the Eurovision Final without winning. £50 Free Cash		105

	Finland Finland sing a traditional song with an accordion whilst prancing around barefoot, need we say more. Bet £20 Get £40		126

	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		126

	Bulgaria Miro sings Angel Si Ti 9(You Are Angel) for Bulgaria, nothing heavenly about the song and instantly forgettable. £200 Free Cash To Bet With!		126

	Bosnia and Herzegovina Vuksain Brajic with Munja I Grom is the B&H Eurovision entry. Unlikely to trouble the judges. Bet £20 Get £40		126

	Netherlands Sounds like a Saturday morning children's television song from the Dutch, dont forget to join in and sing along. Bet £20 Get £40		201

	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 dosen't. £50 Free Cash		209

	Slovenia A peasant rock song is the Slovenian Eurovision entry, it sounds a bad idea and we are not disappointed. Bet £20 Get £40		251

	FYR Macedonia A pub singer meets a rapper meets Brian May and try to cover all musical genres in 3 minutes, bizarre. £200 Free Cash To Bet With!		251

	Poland Marcin Mrozinka sings Legenda which sounds like it was written by a committee for the hard of hearing. Bet £20 Get £40		251
