Reality TV Betting with Paddy Power - place your X Factor and Strictly bets now

It will be high drama this week as the X Factor judges send half of the final 24 acts home, leaving just 12 acts to contend against one another at the Live X factor shows.

This weekend’s show will see three acts assigned to each manager. Cheryl is mentoring the 18-24 yr old girls, Simon is mentoring the 18-24 yr old boys, Louis is mentoring the groups leaving Dannii with the over 24’s.

Meanwhile, Strictly Come Dancing is in full swing. It’s the boys who head the betting this year with Austin Healy the 11/4 favourite to win the whole thing. 

Paddy Power takes a look at this week’s reality TV betting for X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing.

THIS WEEKENDS BETTING UPDATE

X-Factor

The final twelve have yet to be revealed but Paddy Power are already betting on which act will be crowned this year’s X Factor winner. Laura White from Bolton is the early favourite at 7/2. Cheryl Cole has proved a massive hit with viewers this year and she was bound to get a good category. The Girls Aloud stunner is just 5/4 to beat her fellow managers Simon, Louis and Dannii and produce an X Factor winner this year.

Meanwhile there are question marks over Dannii Minogue’s future on the panel. Cheryl has stolen the limelight this year and even Ronan Keating said the Aussie star had “lost the X Factor”. How soon before Simon boots her off the panel? There’s value to be had at 3/1 that Dannii becomes the next X Factor casualty! 

Strictly Come Dancing

This year’s Strictly is still in the warming up stages. Rugby ace Austin Healy is the 11/4 favourite but there’s a long way to go and a lot of talent to compete with. Some of this year’s talented dancers include former S Club 7 stunner Rachel Stevens at 10/3 and model and presenter Lisa Snowden at 14/1.
