The 2025 Eurovision Song Contest takes place in Switzerland next Saturday will feature competitors from all 37 nations. Known simply as Eurovision, this international song competition sees various acts representing their country in the hope they’ll be crowned the ultimate winner.
The popular contest is organised annually by the European Broadcasting Union with this year seeing the highest number of non-English entries since it began after a decision was made to scrap the language rule in 1999. Winner predictions are at fever-pitch with betting giants Paddy Power giving their insights - and if you think this year’s Eurovision could be won by a Brit, think again, as Paddy Power’s latest odds put the UK at a 100/1. The Grand Final of the Eurovision will take place in Basel, Switzerland, but which country is predicted to take the crown according to Paddy Power’s latest odds?
Eurovision 2025 Austria’s act is JJ with his "Wasted Love" and is a firm favourite among many Eurovision fans.
