Overall Winner 

One of the most popular and easiest betting markets for the Eurovision Song Contest is to stake on the overall winner. Keep an eye on the odds in the lead-up to the event, as they are constantly shifting. They can also change after live performances, especially if one singer puts on a particularly good performance.   

Top Five or Top 10 

If you have a feeling about which countries you think will do well in the competition, you could stake on them finishing in the top five or top ten places. Another option could be to try to predict all the top five countries.  

Regional Betting Markets 

Another betting option for Eurovision is to look at the regional betting markets. Here, you can decide which country you think will be top from a specific region. For example, you could bet on who you think will come out on top in the Nordic or Baltic countries.
