Final stretch for the Eurovision 2024 candidates. At the end of the second semi-final, on Thursday, May 9, the 37 candidates of this 68th edition are now only 26. They will all perform this Saturday, May 11 on the stage of the grand final in Malmö , the Swedish city that hosts the competition this year. And like every edition, bettors have their favorites.
The bookmaker rankings have gone into a panic in the last 24 hours and the two semi-finals have changed some cards. The most surprising development: the comeback of Israel, which just a week ago was at the bottom of the Top 10 and is now in second place.
