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.
