Ellie Taylor and Kym Marsh are both 11/4 joint favourites to be eliminated from Strictly this weekend
Strictly Come Dancing waltzes into its famous Blackpool week and Ellie Taylor and Kym Marsh are joint favourites with bookmakers to leave the show.
Taylor has been a low scorer in comparison to the other dancers on the show but she's still not appeared in the dance-off.
Kym Marsh though has appeared in the dance-off previously in week 4 but will be hoping to continue her strong performances in recent weeks.
William Hill though make it 11/4 that Blackpool week is the week in which one of Taylor or Marsh does leave the competition.

Hamza Yassin has an 80% chance of winning this year's Strictly Come Dancing according to the latest betting odds.
Yassin danced a fantastic Couples Choice last weekend, scoring 39 points for an inspiring number deep with African roots.
William Hill make Yassin the 1/4 favourite as his odds continue to tumble on a weekly basis as the show goes on.
