Denmark will win!

Wouldn't mind either , they are in my top 10!

 

[joao]

Wouldn't mind either , they are in my top 10!

I think a lot of people are focusing on Cyprus and Israel. But the truth is Denmark will work very well with judges and televoting!

 

[ChrisOL]

will do a 'Running Scared' and win out of the blue

At least I can have dreams

 

[lavieenrose]

Okay, one last bold one: none of what I'll deem "the WTFive" (Albania, Finland, Ireland, Serbia, Slovenia) finish last.

 

[Gitte]

Neither Cyprus nor Israel will win.

 

[hijirio]

We all cried at Germany’s performance. Wont rule out the possibility of top 3

 

[Jay25]

I dont see Cyprus winning.

I see Israel there, maybe even Lithuania.

1. will rise up to 8th in the odds before the Grand Final (Not even close lol)
2. 4 of the automatic qualifiers will finish on the left hand of the scoreboard. (3 did...)
3. Less than 15 points will separate 10th from 14th in one of the semifinals. (27 in SF1, 10 separated 10-13th in SF2)
4. Cyprus will not give its 12 points to Greece (lol i just wrote that to be a goof)
5. There will be technical problems for one of the favourites in the Grand Final (I mean, technically the UK shot up in the odds and they definitely had problems..
6. Norway will finish 10+ places lower in juries than in televote. (Juries: 16th with 60 points. Televote: 11th with 84
7. No song will finish with less than 30 points in the Grand Final YAY I WAS RIGHT. WITH 39
8. No song will finish with greater than 500 points in the Grand Final

(Netta proved me wrong with her 529)

 

[Himan]

Well Cyprus didn't gave 12 points to greece in the final

Let's see how my predictions went...

I don't necessarily hope these come true, they're just predictions. (at first I thought I didn't have any bold predictions but I guess I do)

will fall outside the top 10 in the final result. (11th-15th) [Right!]
and will fall outside the top 15 in the final result (16th-20th) (Right again!]
A country everyone is writing off will perform surprisingly well in the televote. ( for example....or perhaps ) [Does Serbia count? I guess not....wrong then]
won't win the televote. [Right....but only just]
will underperform. (6th-10th) [They underperformed....but even worse than I predicted]
and will get a top 10 result in the televote. (I think Cyprus, Israel, France, Sweden and Estonia will also be top 10, but they're not really bold predictions) [Six correct, but four of them were pretty obvious]
Whatever happens a portion of the Eurovision fanbase will claim Eurovision is dead. [Correct]

Edit: I guess it's kind of a cop out to not predict the winner.

will win. [.....nope]

Not bad predictions. The winner was waaaaaaaay off though.
