Dark Horse 2018

[A-lister]

will do much better than expected if they'll have an efficient performance, yeah not sure the juries will jump onboard, but it's a crowd-pleaser
is also highly underrated, but we'll see about that one
could also surprise

That is all

 

[QwaarJet]

Really thinking that Lithuania could be a shock top 5.

 

[aletem]

Norway and Azerbaijan

 

[cegs5]

I think/hope can really do much better than expected.

is also being overlooked by the fans.

 

[Kevan1994]

all have a strong chance at surprising depending on their staging and what juries think.

 

[theCONWEL]

- if they get the staging right, I can see this doing really quite well

 

[DutchESC]

 

[hijirio]

is such a darkhorse that it's not a darkhorse anymore, many people are sure that it will do better than in fan votings.

 

[SerRusLena]

In all honesty

Albania and Greece are criminally underrated and deserve such goodness

with the state of the fanbase today i am declaring FINLAND our dark horse

people are still discrediting saara even though she nailed yet another live performance in london while so-called semifinal 1 sure qualifier mikolas isn't even trying to pretend he has sung live even once this season and fellow bubble favorite eleni's live ineptitude is so notorious it went viral on facebook. i guess people like to be surprised on the day, even though saara qualifying and then doing well in the final should not be a surprise at all.

She has said that her staging will be something that has never been seen in Eurovision before, so I agree, I think it could be something interesting...As for Mikolas, for me his song is not even singing, more talking, almost everyone could sing that style. Overhyped song. It is ok, not bad, I like it, but not really something special.

I agree on being rather a fader after that performance... The one in the Ukrainian NF was quite solid though... So I really don't know what to expect in May

I am fully convinced by Cesar now... He was so good live! is totally underestimated, I guess we'll have a decent result again! This is really a dark horse...

I think the one in the Ukrainian NF was playback, but I am not sure.

Nearly all acts furing the LEP used pre recorded vocals, so not really easy to say after that who can be a dark horses.
Bulgaria is all blue in the odds, but their live was pre recorded, the chorus at least, very obvious.

For now, until staging and "real" live, i think dark horses are France, Bulgaria, Belgium and Norway.
