Christmas Number One Betting Odds For X Factor Increase As Rage Against The Machine Gamble Continues
Tuesday 08 December 2009 at 16:08
The X Factor Winner is still the most likely Christmas Number One according to the betting odds but it seems people are rebelling against Simon Cowell's stranglehold on the charts and this could lead to a surprise choice for a festive hit.
Joe McElderry Expected To Be Christmas Number One
You can get odds of just 1/6 with Sportingbet that the X Factor winner (looking likely to be Joe McElderry at this stage) has the Christmas Number 1 single and when you consider Stan James offer just 1/10 on this outcome and that it was once offered at 1/20 it looks a really good bet.
Fans Are Raging Against Simon Cowell
There is a campaign to stop the X Factor winner having the Christmas Number 1 though, music buyers are being encouraged to download Rage Against The Machine's ‘Killing In The Name' and that song is now just 4/1 with William Hill to be Christmas Number One. Susan Boyle could do it for Britains Got Talent, she is a 28/1 chance with SkyBet. For more Christmas Number One betting odds click on any of the bookie links above.
