Come on the Girls

Whilst the bookmakers are being cautious, probably because of previous results and the addition of the first-ever all-male pairing for the BBC show, the girls will be looking to score for Girl Power and record an 8th series win.

When combining the available early betting odds from bookmakers, they are given only a 45% chance, however, and whilst the men have the 5 most popular celebrities in the betting, the girls have the 4 biggest betting odds contenders too.

Sara Davies, Judi Love and are both 20/1 to win, whilst Nina Wadia is only given a 3.85% chance of winning at 25/1.

Stacey Dooley has been the only female celebrity winner of Strictly Come Dancing in the last 6 seasons dominated by the males. She won in 2018.

The last female celebrity winner of the show was Stacey Dooley in 2018, who splits a run of 5 wins in the last 6 seasons for the men.

Anything can happen when the voting is left to the great British public, and looking back on previous winners of strictly come dancing, anything really can happen.

Could The Bookies Have got the Strictly Odds Wrong?

If there was to be a shock and Nina Wadia was able to come through victorious, she would not be the first shock win of the show with the biggest of them all coming in 2020 when Bill Bailey was priced at 80/1 before the show kicked off

Despite being given only a 1.23% chance of winning, Bailey survived throughout each and every grueling round to be crowned the winner.
