Eurovision 2025 Betting Odds and Predictions: Who Wins the Song Contest?

Sweden (+210)

Since Abba’s win at Eurovision 1974, the Swedes have consistently pumped out talent to send to the singing competition. In 2023, Sweden won their seventh Eurovision title to tie Ireland for the most all-time.

Sweden’s representative, Loreen, was a heavy favorite to win, and cleared the competition in the Grand Final. It was the second win for Loreen after she captured the award in 2012, too. Sweden has won three titles over the last 12 years, including in 2015 with Heroes by Mans Zelmerlow.

Comedy musical act, KAJ, will be representing Sweden after winning the selection contest. The trio edged out Mans Zelmerlow in a shocker KAJ is performing their song “Bara Bara Bastu” for Eurovision 2025. In the same light as Baby Lasana, this is a “joke” act that just works with the public.

They don’t take them too seriously and probably didn’t expect to go this far but now have the best odds of winning Eurovision! The song has gotten so popular that it was recently No. 1 on Spotify’s Daily Global Viral Chart.

I foresee Sweden doing incredibly well in the televote. They’re already attracting a large fanbase and the votes should be plentiful from viewers watching at home.

It’s worth noting that the three members of the group are Finnish, so they’ll get the vote from their Scandinavian neighbors. With Team Finland falling well out of contention recently, Sweden is the next best vote for the Finns! However, will “Bara Bara Batsu” resonate with the jury? There is a chance it catches on.

Austria (+250)

Austrians rejoice! The latest markets for the Eurovision 2025 betting odds reveal that Austria is now a strong contender to take the title. Earlier this year, the country wasn’t even on anyone’s radar for a Eurovision winner pick.

However, Austria is on the move, and may not be stopped now! Represented by singer-songwriter JJ, Austria is getting worldwide attention as hype builds for Eurovision 2025.

Why is JJ suddenly getting attention? For one, the staging for his performance is expected to be incredible and unprecedented. Eurovision has seen some impressive staging performances in the past, but JJ is turning things up a notch for voters.

The artist’s live performance of “Wasted” is expected to combine several unique elements. Recent reports suggest that JJ will incorporate camera angles that are a first for Eurovision. Additionally, water and rain elements are in the plans, as well as a boat will be part of the act.

We’ll have to wait and see what Austria has in store for us, but if JJ can pull it off, they will likely be instant favorites to win Eurovision 2025. In addition to the stunning staging expected, JJ’s raw talent is undeniable, so he is a deserved favorite heading into the contest!

France (+500)

Team France has flown up the board and is a hot option to win Eurovision 2025. France has won Eurovision five times but hasn’t captured the title since 1977! Perhaps it’s finally time for the French side to bring home the Eurovision crown again?

The onus falls on Louane, who is likely to be a big fan favorite. The 28-year-old star was selected internally by the French committee, so she didn’t get here by beating any competition. That being said, Louane is well-known in France and a safe choice.

According to Spotify, Louane has roughly 2.5 million listeners and has 1.64 million subscribers on YouTube. In other words, a lack of experience and stage presence is not going to be an issue for Louane at all. She is a well-polished performer, and the stage at Basel 2025 won’t be too big for her.

Louane recently released the song she’ll be performing for France at Eurovision 2025. Unsurprisingly, it’s an emotional ballad, as is typically the case with Louane. “Maman” is about her mother who passed away in 2014 after battling a lengthy illness. You shouldn’t be surprised when this performance does very well in the televote.

Also, she has a large fanbase of young fans, who will undoubtedly give her a boost. I’m confident that the jury will be excited about Louana as well, so France has a big chance at +500! That said, France’s Eurovision odds have slipped recently due to Austria’s meteoric rise.
