Eurovision Betting Odds

The Eurovision Song Contest 2022 will be a huge betting market in the build up to the event in May. Bettors will be hunting through the betting markets to find value in everyone's favourite intercontinental singing contest.

This year's betting is lead by Ukraine with odds of 4/5 at time of writing then it is 2022 hosts Italy at odds of 4/1 and then Sweden follow at odds 12/1.

It is pretty clear that world events are currently influencing the bookmakers on the favourites chances of winning and there is no doubt that this will sway the public in Europe on the night when choosing the eventual winner.

Italy will be looking to be the first country to claim back-to-back wins since Ireland in the early nineties.

Returning for the Italians is 2019 runner-up Mahmood with 19-year old singer and rapper, Blanco.

Mahmood was a crowd favourite three years ago and looks like a promising bet heading into this year's event at odds of 4/1.

Interestingly the United Kingdom are fourth in the outright winner market with odds of 12/1 best price. The United Kingdom will be hoping to make up for their nil point on the Eurovision scoreboard last year.

Normally, we would advice against betting on the United Kingdom from winning the competition, but the bookmakers are confident that UK entrant Sam Ryder will restore some pride to the UK's horrendous record in the past two decades.

The Swedes take the competition very seriously so the odds could be a reflection of that fact rather than their chance of winning. However, if you the odds of 12/1 stick out, then you couldn't go wrong a flutter on the six time winners.

If you wish to bet on the ESC, you can choose from a variety of markets from outright winner, winning region, semi final winner and more with leading bookmakers from your country on Easyodds.com.

Who is the favourite to win Eurovision 2022?

Who Is Representing The UK in the Eurovision Song Contest Grand Final?

This is the first time since 2016 that the song was not chosen by the British public.
