Sweden are the betting favourites for this year's Eurovision Song Contest
Betting is hotting up for this year's Eurovision Song Contest and it is Sweden who are the favourites with bookmakers to win this year's competition.
Former winner Loreen will be representing Sweden again with her song 'Tattoo' seeing the country's odds come tumbling down to win to odds-on at 5/6.
Loreen won Eurovision back in 2012 with her winning song 'Euphoria' arguably one of the most recognisable Song Contest performances in the history of the competition.
William Hill now say there's a 54% chance that Sweden win the Song Contest which will take place in Liverpool next month.

Odds also given for the two Semi-Finals on Eurovision week
Eurovision week doesn't just see the main Song Contest take place but we also have two Semi-Finals too with 10 countries on both days qualifying for Eurovision.
26 countries will compete in the Eurovision Song Contest with the host broadcaster and the Big 5 of France, Germany, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom all qualifying automatically for the final show.
The host broadcaster this year was meant to be last year's winners Ukraine but the UK are hosting the event instead due to the ongoing war with Russia, but Ukraine will also automatically qualify for the show.
