If her performance is going to be anything like UMK, she could even fail to qualify. For the moment, I don't expect Top 15 for Finland. I expect the song to sound completely different live than in studio. If she is going with dancers, then there won't be backings. If she is going with backings, the performance could get boring. Maybe it's only me, but I also think the song sounds kind of dated. Not sure if juries will like it. No Top 15 for Cyprus I would say. I do actually really like this song. But I think it is going to be difficult to stage it in a way that people really want to vote for it. Does not sound jury friendly either. Maybe I will change my mind during rehearsals, but for now: No Top 10. Another one I do enjoy. But I don't think it is strong enough to collect a lot of votes. Maybe the GoT theme could work in its favour. Not jury friendly. No Top 15. Not sure if I could call it a fanwank, since it is not really high in polls. But somehow there seem to be a lot of people (even non spanish) screaming Spain could win or at least they will be Top 5. For me they are more near towards bottom 5 (although the song grew on me)

Fanwanks are typically attributed to those big diva songs that usually crash and burn. I could see this coming for Finland, Cyprus and likely for Estonia.
Belgium is not diva and camp song, but too beige and too sophisticated.
Israel is a fanwank that I really don't see crashing. Legitimate hype!
On the male spectrum of contenders, I would guess Denmark is a fanwank. It's unoriginal and milking the GoT hype.

Finland and Poland. As we have a bunch of them every year, some of those generic dance songs will fail. Both Finland and Poland didn't convince me with their live performances while Azerbaijan and Australia have their solid base of voters, so I guess they're safe.
Austria is overhyped, too. I like the song very much but it will be too generic too for the public.
Isarel and Estonia won't flop, I'm sure.
