Eurovision 2024 Betting Tips & Predictions
Craig Jones 
Eurovision takes place on Saturday night, so get your dancing shoes on for the biggest party of the year.
Betting for the final is out, and here I’ve got my Eurovision 2024 betting tips and predictions, with two each way picks, plus an outsider that looks capable of grabbing a top 10 finish.
Check out my three fancies below, and if you want more about the odds, then our Eurovision odds page is live and updated with the latest betting movements.
Eurovision 2024 Betting Tips
To kick off my betting tips, I first have two each way fancies to win the tournament outright, both look to have chances of finishing in the top five and with selected bookmakers paying four places each way, this gives a nice each way betting angle into the market.
France - 14/1 EW with Livescore Bet
I’ll begin with France, who are 14/1 with Livescore Bet. They are paying four places, which I prefer, but you can get 16/1 elsewhere at the time of writing, paying three places.
I think France are perfectly positioned, drawn in spot number 25 which means they are one from the end.
This big ballad comes in the middle of some more upbeat numbers, but that could work in its favour, allowing the vocals to stand out amongst the more fun entries.
One of the big outsiders, Austria, close the show, and that could leave the door open for France to be the one that viewers remember, and lead to a strong score with the public vote.
Fourth favourites behind Croatia, Israel and Switzerland, I think France have upside against the latter two of those. They’ve got a better draw than both, in particular Israel, and I’m not sure how well the Swiss song will go down with the public.
France each way, four places, is my main bet of the competition.
Italy - 30/1 EW with Unibet
Again with this one, I am going with a bookmaker paying four places, you can get 35/1 on Italy elsewhere, but this offers better value with the additional place.
Italy have been drawn in 15, which isn’t a disaster, but had they been drawn in the final six or eight positions, I think they would have been half the price.
This really fun and catchy number is going to be one that people remember.
Surrounded by songs that aren’t expected to do too well, the draw could really see Italy steal the show in their segment, Norway come before them and Serbia come after, both priced up at 750/1.
Three of the six ahead of Italy in the betting market have poor draws, and go on stage before them, which could really play into Italian hands.
If there’s one at a bigger price that could cause a surprise, I think Italy are the ones.
Georgia - 11/4 Top 10 Finish with BetVictor
Rounding off my bets, I am going to take a punt on Georgia to really outshine their huge odds of 500/1 to win the competition.
I don’t think that’s got any chance of landing, but where I do like them is the top 10 market, and the main reason for that is their draw.
Positioned perfectly in 24th, surrounded by favourites Croatia and one of my other fancies France, this Georgia song has the potential to stand up well against those two.
It’s more of a pop song than the two mentioned, and I thought it stood out in the semi finals, with fireballs and flames used to great effect on the screens to really bring this song to life and give it some edge.
This could be one that people remember from the closing numbers, and it may be enough for Georgia to sneak into the top 10.
