Creator Universe now 8/11 to get the Christmas Number One spot this year

TikTok collective Creator Universe have moved into 8/11 favourites with UK Betting Sites to top the charts for Christmas this year and win the coveted Christmas Number One spot.

The race for Christmas Number One officially begins on Friday December 15 and it's a host of TikTok stars who are favourites to finish top for the festive period.

Creator Universe sees 30 of the biggest and most influential content creators come together for The Trussell Trust to perform a cover of 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday'.

Producer Jamie Helms has been the force behind it all and he was also behind LadBaby's last three Christmas Number One's so he's got great experience.

William Hill now suggest there's a 57.9% chance of Creator Universe grabbing the top spot this Christmas with new odds now offered.

The Pogues had moved into favourites earlier this month after the passing of Shane MacGowan

Shane MacGowan's sad passing earlier this month had seen The Pogues odds for Christmas Number One slashed down to just 1/6 for the top spot.

Those odds gave an 85% chance that The Pogues got Number One for their festive classic 'Fairytale of New York' but their odds have since drifted.

Creator Universe's run for the Number One spot now sees The Pogues drift right out to 5/4 to get the Christmas top spot with a 44% chance they do so now.

We look at the last decade of Christmas Number One's

The Christmas Number One race has been dominated by LadBaby in the recent past with the influencer duo hitting top spot in the last 5 years.

Ed Sheeran was the last musician to get Christmas Number One with his song 'Perfect' back in 2017 and 6 years on it may be The Pogues that get it this year.

According to the odds though, we're likely to have yet another influencer winner for the Christmas Number One spot.

The full list of Christmas Number One's in the past decade are:

2013 - Sam Bailey - Skyscraper
2014 - Ben Haenow - Something I Need
2015 - Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Choir - A Bridge Over You
2016 - Clean Bandit ft Sean Paul and Anne-Marie - Rockabye
2017 - Ed Sheeran - Perfect
2018 - LadBaby - We Built This City
2019 - LadBaby - I Love Sausage Rolls
2020 - LadBaby - Don't Stop Me Eatin'
2021 - LadBaby ft Ed Sheeran with Elton John - Sausage Rolls for Everyone
2022 - LadBaby - Food Aid
