France The Favourites In Eurovision 2011 With Amaury Vassili Singing Sognu
Wednesday 04 May 2011 at 12:22
 There has been a Eurovision 2011 gamble on France winning the ESC in Germany on the 14th May. All bookmakers have slashed the price on this operatic style song and it seems likely that it will go off as favourite for Eurovision. Bet 365 and 888Sport currently have Amaury Vassili at a best price of 100/30, in March he could have been backed at 25/1! The moving song seems tailor made for a Eurovision audience and if France do win for the first time since Marie Myriam won in 1977 bookmakers will be counting the cost.
Eurovision fever is starting to build with the arrival of the contestants at Dusseldorf’s Esprit Arena ahead of rehearsals and we are getting a clearer of picture on which countries are worthy of a Eurovision bet. Azerbaijan, France, UK, Estonia, Hungary are all countries who have been supported in the betting with the bookmakers.
Five countries qualify automatically, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK with all other countries competing in two semi finals on the Tuesday and Thursday prior to the main Eurovision Contest. Azerbaijan’s entry is favourite at 7/4 with Victor Chandler for the 1st Semi Final and Estonia at 11/4 is favourite with Paddy Power for the 2nd Eurovision Semi Final.
There are a whole host of betting opportunities on Eurovision including match bets between neighbouring countries and a market on who will come stone last. To place your Eurovision Bet click Bet 365, Paddy Power, 888Sport or Victor Chandler who all offer free bets for new customers.
