Belgium will qualify easily because there not many strong entries in this semi-final so even 8th or 9th Belgium will qualify!

Belgium is my bet for the biggest flop of this semi.

The live and the staging need to be good, otherwise it may not qualify. I feel this is less appealing than some songs that are lower in odds, like Czech Rep or San Marino, or even Serbia that is performing before.

It can easily happen with Eliot what happened with Sennek last year. It will depend on many things...

Is Belgium strong though? I find the chorus quite weak and Belgium coming after Serbia.... not sure if Belgium can stand out after it.

Of course Belgium's song is not strong but in the 1st semi-final looks a safe qualifier! If Belgium was in the 2nd semi-final i would be almost sure that it would flop and fail to qualify but in the 1st semi-final i believe they really need to ruin everything on the staging to be a NQ!

Tumblr, mostly.

Eliot just performed on MNM (a flemish radio station) and nailed every note. He's definitely qualifying for the final. He could be top ten with the right visual support.

Also coming after Kruna isn't a problem because Kruna is kind of a nothing lol.

I really do think :sm: might slip through! The running order just made this semi a whole lot more ambiguous - :fi::pl::cz::hu::by::rs::be::ee::pt::sm: are all kind of borderline IMO; the only real locked qualifiers to me are Cyprus, Slovenia, Australia, Iceland, and Greece.

I do think the final qualifiers will be: :cy::sl::cz::hu::rs::au::is::pt::gr::sm:

:pt::is::cy::au::rs::cz::hu::by::fi: and of course :sm:

i, for some reason, think that belgium and greece will screw up in the staging AGAIN, and slovenia will be drawfucked

somehow my first prediction might be the real results???????????

we just need to see if dead couple will survive instead of darumeme feat. handsome guy with not handsome vocals

Greece cannot semifinal win because juries will place us outside top 5 for sure. Portugal, Iceland or even Cyprus can win the semifinal.

I think it's impossible to predict the winner!! But my bet is Greece atm though, imo Greece has good chances to finish both Top 3 in jury vote and televote...

Rehearsals will make it easier to predict!!

I see many people who predict Greece as winner of semifinal. I know that we could get 1st on televoting but i doubt about juries. Rehearsals of course will make it clear who will qualify and who will not.

Honestly, I can see Greece NQ. Not sure if it can get enough televote support, honestly I don't get the hype. Maybe that's just me though :)
There are surprises every year so for sure some of the "certain" qualifiers won't make it.

  1. Greece :gr:
  2. Cyprus :cy:
  3. Australia :au:
  4. Portugal :pt:

  6. Iceland :is:
  7. Serbia :rs:
  8. Slovenia :sl:
  9. Hungary :hu:
  10. Poland :pl:

  14. Finland :fi:
  15. Belarus :by:

I've put :gr: so high because anyone else do so + bookmakers..[same with Slovenia]. Last year I predicted Yianna's flop and I am also worried this time, everything depends on live performance. They can qualify whit shit one though (:gr: 2017)

I still don't get how everyone feels so sure that we will come first in the semi. Portugal, Cyrpus, Belgium, Czech Reppublic, Australia, Iceland, Belarus, Hungury, Serbia, Estonia will get more votes from juries than Greece. We need to be top 3 on televoting in order to qualify.
