RIMINI – Get ready to do Rim-Tim-Tagi-Dim: it almost seems like a magic formula, but it is certainly a catchphrase that, once heard, gets into your head and never comes out. It is the song that bookmakers are betting on for victory in the Eurovision song contest 2024. We already heard it on the stage in Malmö in the first semi-final. last Tuesday, May 7th, brought by Baby Lasagna, singer-flag of Croatia. According to the forecasts also given in recent days by the Ladbrokes betting shop, it will be the Croatian who will be named Eurovision champion with his rock-dance-pop hit. While for the site dedicated to betting on the European music festival https://eurovisionworld.com/odds/eurovision Baby Lasagna has well 42% chance of victory.

Almost double the percentage of the second ‘possible’ song, Hurracane, sung by the Israeli Eden Golan, “stop” at 20% for experts in the world of betting. The artist representing Israel is the new entry among the top 5 since yesterday evening, when the second semi-final ended and due to Rai’s oversight, it was possible to know his result of the televoting, the 39.31%, a much higher share of preferences than all the other finalist singers.

On the third step (maybe) Switzerland with the singer Nemo, with “The Code” , who performed last night, in the second semi-final, overcoming her. His sparkling song that mixes rap, drum and bass and even opera and a beautiful voice has 12% chance of winning for bookmakers.

Just below the podium, France and Simane‘s hymn to love, with his song entitled “Mon Amour” and his powerful voice, was given 6%. Equal chances, stuck at 4%, instead Ireland and Bambie Thug, and Ukraine with the Alyona– duo >Jerry Heil.

Italy and Angelina Mango, with La Noia, given in recent days among the candidates in the top 5, drops to 7th place in the bookmakers’ ranking, with “only” a 3% chance of winning, despite the excellent performance in last night’s semi-final. Following her, with a 2% chance, is the Dutch Joost Klein with his techno ballad in the name of Europeanism, “Europapa”.

In the queue, with a 1% chance of winning, all the other 18 (of the 26) finalists who will perform on Saturday at the arena. However, the percentages remain fickle and fluctuating. All that remains is to wait for the final to find out which “flag” will win.
