The Masked Singer returns to our screens this weekend with fans eagerly speculating over the identities of the remaining mystery performers.
With four celebrities already revealed, attention now turns to Sloth and Toastie, who are under increasing scrutiny after last week’s performances.
Sloth found themselves at risk of elimination in the previous episode, and all eyes are now on whether they’ll be unmasked this weekend.
Meanwhile, vocal powerhouse Toastie has impressed viewers, but the guesses from fans and betting experts are beginning to converge.
Although no UK bookmakers currently offer odds on The Masked Singer, several entertainment betting experts have released market-style predictions, giving us a strong sense of who might be behind the costumes.
Who Is Sloth?
According to the latest expert odds, Colson Smith, best known for playing Craig Tinker in Coronation Street and for his appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, is the current 6/4 favourite to be revealed as Sloth.
TV chef Jamie Oliver and adventurer Ben Fogle follow close behind, while rugby star Joe Marler is also among the leading contenders.

Who Is Toastie?
In the case of Toastie, expert predictions are pointing firmly toward Brenda Edwards, who rose to fame on The X Factor and is now a regular on Loose Women.
Her stage presence, soulful voice, and confident movement make her a natural fit for the 2/1 favourite tag.
Still, there’s strong competition in this category too, with Nenah Cherry and Beverley Knight both hovering around the 3/1 mark.
Actress and West End star Sheridan Smith rounds out the shortlist.
