Bookies William Hill have slashed the price of Jedward winning the X Factor from 150/1 to 10/1 after the public once again voted in their droves to save them. Hills are now convinced that Simon Cowell is a closet Jedward fan after the twins were in the last two to sing on Saturday night and offer 4/1 that they are given the final slot this coming Saturday. The twins are 5/2 to be the fifth act voted on Sunday and Olly Murs is the favourite to win at 5/2.

“One of the few proven reality TV stats is that acts who perform later in any programme have a better chance of getting votes. For example, the top three in Britain’s Got Talent were the last three to perform on the final show. We understand that Simon sanctioned a move for the twins last weekend and we are just 4/1 that Simon lets them sing last again on Saturday,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

4/1 Twins To Sing Last!
William Hill Next Eviction: 7/4 Lloyd Daniels, 5/2 John & Edward, 9/2 Jamie Archer, 5/1 Danyl Johnson, 12/1 Lucie Jones, 20/1 Stacey Solomon, 33/1 Olly Murs, 33/1 Joseph McElderry



William Hill Odds X Factor Winner: 5/2 Oli Murs, 7/2 Joseph McElderry, 5/1 Stacey Soloman, 11/2 Danyl Johnson, 11/2 Lucie Jones, 10/1 Jamie Archer, 10/1 John & Edward, 33/1 Lloyd Daniels,

JEDWARD SPELLS DOUBLE TROUBLE FOR BOOKIES
Bookies Paddy Power have further cut the odds on X Factor hopefuls John and Edward to 10/1 after the brothers sailed through to the next round with their performance of Freddie Mercury’s ‘We Will Rock You’.
Paddy Power are now estimating a whopping payout of more than €400,000 should the Lucan twins go the distance and win this years X Factor. It would easily top the record as the biggest payout in X Factor history!
Sharon McHugh, spokesperson for Paddy Power, said: “John and Edward must have been cats in a previous life because it looks like nothing can kill them off. If they have got nine lives it could be just enough to see them get to the final!”
Yet again the twins are tipped to escape the bottom two this week with Paddy Power quoting 4/6 that they’ll stay in the competition. The brothers are now more popular than one of the series early favourites with Paddy Power putting them ahead of Jamie (Afro) Archer in the betting to win.

X FACTOR AND SCD LATEST ODDS FROM PADDY POWER

John and Edward Grimes, aka JEDWARD are once again the main talking point this week. The twins’ odds have been slashed to 12/1 from a whopping starting price of 100/1.

One time favourites Danyl and Lucie have slipped right down the betting to 9/2 and 6/1 and it’s baby-faced Joe McElderry who now leads the pack at 3/1.

As for Strictly, the outfits might have the wow factor but this year’s contestants have so far failed to raise our temperatures. Ricky Whittle remains the 4/6 favourite to dance his way to victory.

Paddy Power takes a look at this week’s reality TV betting for X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing along with some hot tips to bag a winner!

THIS WEEKENDS BETTING UPDATE

X-Factor
Love them or loathe them, credit has to be given to the Grime twins. Not only have their odds been dramatically slashed to win but they’ve managed to avoid being in the bottom two week after week. Judging by the odds the terrible twosome still have another week or so left in the tank and we can’t wait to see what they pull out of the bag next! Danyl Johnson on the other hand appears to have fallen out of favour with the public and could be in trouble this week.

Tip of the week: Danyl Johnson to get the boot on Sunday at 12/1.

Strictly Come Dancing
Can anyone beat the gorgeous Ricky Whittle? Absolutely they can! Ali Bastian is the 3/1 second favourite nipping at Ricky’s heels and bookies Paddy Power think it’s way too early to write off a shock win!

Tip of the week: Ali Bastian to win Strictly Come Dancing at 3/1
