WilliamHill offer over double the odds on win than ‘nil point’ for the UK
It doesn’t seem to matter to WilliamHill who wins ‘Your Country Needs You’ and represents the UK at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, as the bookmaker are convinced there is no way they will be winning the competition.
Hills make it 33/1 that the UK wins Eurovision, whilst it less than half that price, 16/1, that instead the Great British entry receives the dreaded ‘nil point’.
Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams told Bettingpro:
"We don think the UK can do anymore to improve our chances of winning than
they did last year and sadly there is more chance that the UK will get zero
than Hero!"
Josh Dubovie leads the firm’s betting in ‘Your Country Needs You’ at 9/4, followed by Karen Harding, at 11/4.
William Hill Your Country Needs You: 9/4 Josh Dubovie, 11/4 Karen Harding,
3/1 Uni5, 5/1 Alexis Gerred, 7/1 Miss Fitz, 12/1 Esma Akkilic
