	Norway Norway are the early Eurovision Odds favourite with a slower more thoughtful ballad than the Alexander Rybak Fairytale which was truimphant at Eurovision last year in Moscow. Bet £20 Get £40		6

	Greece Bet £20 Get £40		11

	Sweden Bet £20 Get £40		11

	Armenia Eva Rivas sings for Armenia accompanied by a hooded monk. A good each way bet at the price. Bet £20 Get £40		11

	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		13

	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		13

	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		13

	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. £25 No Lose Bet!		13.4

	Croatia Bet £20 Get £40		15

	Romania Playing With Fire is the entry for Eurovision 2010 from Romania by Paula Seling and Ovi. This Eurovison song is fancied by a lot of Eurovison forums. Bet £20 Get £40		17
