Eurovision Odds 2009 Friday 15 May 2009 at 19:49 Eurovision Odds 2009 are currently headed by Norway but there has been an almighty gamble on the UK and they could start the competition as second favourites such is the strength of support.
Norway Strong Favourites
Norway are the long time market leaders and can be backed at 11/10 with Totesport and Blue Square despite most bookie offering an odds on price. Norway are represented by Alexander Rybak and judging by the semi finals during the week the odds are correct, whoever you back in Eurovision 2009, you should have a saver on Norway.
UK Gamble Continues
There has been a massive gamble on the UK over the past week and a victory for Jade Ewen would cost the bookmaking industry millions of pounds. Having been as big as 40/1 with some bookies, the UK can now be backed at a best price of 12/1 with Bet365, Stan James, Coral and Ladbrokes. The song ‘My Time’ is expected to perform much better than recent efforts but if you expect the UK to flop you can back ‘nul points’ at 66/1 with William Hill.
Other Nations Expected To Do Well
Other nations who are expected to do well at Eurovision 2009 include Greece who are the second favourites at 6/1 with Totesport and Blue Square, and Turkey, who have just been ousted as third favourites by the UK, Turkey are 12/1with Stan James.

Azerbaijan
Safura represents Azerbaijan with the song Hear I Am which is very similar to lots of other Eurovision songs from the past few years. However she may do well and has been supported in the betting.

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.

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.
Bet £20 Get £40
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.

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
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.
