Sweden are the odds on favourites to win the Eurovision Song Contest this year
Sweden are now odds-on at 5/6 with UK betting sites to win this year's Eurovision Song Contest with former Swedish winner Loreen representing her country once again this year.
Loreen won the Song Contest back in 2012 with her song Euphoria one of the more recognisable and successful songs in recent years from Eurovision.
With Loreen representing Sweden again with her song 'Tattoo' the country's odds have slowly been tumbling down to win with them now odds-on with betting sites.
William Hill put her as the favourite ahead of Finland who sit as the 7/2 second favourites to win the show ahead of Ukraine who have gone from favourites to third in the betting market.

The UK's odds shortened after the position draw earlier this month
The United Kingdom are now 16/1 to win Eurovision after their odds were slashed to win the show following the position draw that took place earlier this month.
25-year-old Mae Muller was announced as the UK's entry with her song 'I Wrote A Song' which instantly saw the UK drift in the odds to as big as 33/1.
This month though has seen the position draw take place to see when she will perform and it turns out she will be the final act of the night in 26th place.
Following that news her odds to win Eurovision have been more than halved to just 16/1 now to win the famous Song Contest this year.
