As second rehearsals continue today in Tel Aviv, the betting market is continually changing with Hatari from Iceland now ninth favourites.
Iceland has slipped back in the Betting Odds this morning, with Hatari now the ninth favourites to win the Eurovision Song Contest 2019. Iceland has been passed by Australia who since the beginning of this week, have moved up eight places. Kate Miller-Heidke of Australia now has a 4% chance of winning next weekend, and looks close to passing Switzerland in the odds today.
Up at the top of the odds Italy has fallen back another place. Mahmood who took to the stage for the first time yesterday, has fallen from fourth to fifth place in the odds. Azerbaijan has as a result moved back to fourth place, where the nation found itself following its first rehearsal.
Also of note is that Portugal who started rehearsals off a week ago as the 13th favourite to win, is now 19th favourite to win the competition. Portugal had been among the favourites earlier this season, but is now predicted not to qualify for the Grand Final.
