The odds of who will win this year’s Eurovision have been revealed and the UK has been given less than favourable odds. This year’s favourites to win are Denmark who are being represented by Emmelie de Forest with the song 'Only Teardrops' and they have been given odds of 6/4 to win by Paddy Power.

Bonnie Tyler who is representing the UK this year has only been given odds of 25/1; odds which she shares with Azerbaijan and Ireland. A spokesperson for Paddy Power said: "Sadly it looks like the UK will be left red-faced again but Eurovision remains a popular market with turnover certain to smash the six-figure mark on the night."

Tyler herself seems to think better of her chances of taking the title saying: "I think it is an advantage because I've been promoting the album in Germany, France, Rome, Spain, South Africa anyway. Surely that's got to help!"

The full odds are as follows:

6/4 Denmark
