Current Betting Odds (William Hill) - 40/1 My Prediction - Again, dispora will get Turkey through. I personally do not like this song, and I feel Turkey need to find something new for next year.
As any Eurovision fan would know, it is thought that if you are drawn to sing nearer to the end of the contest, you are more likely to qualify for the final, or win the show.
