Eurovision Song Contest Odds 2009 Friday 15 May 2009 at 12:24 Eurovision Song Contest Odds 2009 are currently headed by Norway before Saturday’s final. Norway may be the shortest price with all the bookies but they are not the worst result for the bookies.
Bookies Hoping To Avoid Taking Bets On Norway
Norway are the nation everyone has to beat, they have been favourites to win Eurovision for months and in the past 24 hours most bookies have been forced to make them odds on chances due to persistent bets. Only Totesport have been brave enough to hold an odds against price, you can get 11/10 with that bookie. Most others offer odds on prices, Paddy Power offer the shortest price of just 8/11.
Jade Ewen Hopes To Do UK Proud
The UK however, are the worst result for most bookies, the bookmaking industry will be millions of pounds poorer if Jade Ewen is successful on Saturday night. The price of 40/1 for a UK victory is long gone, the best price you can now get is 12/1 with Bet365, Paddy Power, Stan James, Ladbrokes and Coral.
Greece And Turkey Expected To Perform Well
Two other nations who have always been close to favouritism are Greece and Turkey. Greece have been nibbled at over the past week and can be backed at 6/1 with Totesport and Boylesports whilst bookies have been able to leave Turkey’s odds unchanged this week, they are best priced 12/1 with Boylesports and Stan James.

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.

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.

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
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.
