We are off to Turin in Italy for Eurovision 2022 following their win in 2021.
Bookmakers give Italy a 16/1 chance to make it back-to-back wins, something that, has only been achieved three times in the contest's history, and only twice in clear fashion as Spain had to share the title with The UK, Netherlands, and France in 1969 when Lulu sang Boom-Bang-a-Bang.
- Spain - 1968 - 1969
- Isreal - 1978 - 1979
- Ireland 1992 - 1993 - 1994 [And again in 1996]

There are of course qualifying rounds to navigate before we know the final lineup of Eurovision 2022, due to take place on 14th May 2022 and when betting on Eurovision 2022 to will begin in earnest, although there is value to be found with bigger prices if you can identify the winner before qualification.
The two Semi-finals are on the 10th and 12th respectively.
A Win for Sweden?
What a year it would be for Sweden if they were able to win, with Abba re-emerging in the pop world, winners for them in 1976 with Waterloo, another Euro win would give them a total of 7 victories, joining Ireland as the winning most country of Eurovision in its history.
Eurovision is just one huge betting event next year that we can look forward to from the entertainment world, and just one of a huge range of betting markets that bookmakers are predicting in 2022.
