The race for the Glitterball Trophy is intensifying as Strictly Come Dancing 2025 moves into its crucial final stages. With Blackpool week on the horizon, the competition has a definitive frontrunner according to the latest betting odds.
The Latest Elimination Shakes Up the Competition
Another celebrity has left the ballroom following a heartbreaking dance-off during the seventh week of live shows. This latest exit has caused a shift in the odds, solidifying one contestant's position as the clear favourite to win the entire series. The eighth round of live performances is scheduled for this weekend, with the iconic Blackpool week tantalisingly close.
Who Are The Favourites To Win Strictly 2025?
After six eliminations and one withdrawal, the field of celebrities has narrowed significantly. The withdrawal occurred before the first live show when Dani Dyer was forced to pull out due to an injury sustained in a rehearsal fall.
The first celebrity to be voted off in a dance-off was former The Apprentice candidate, Thomas Skinner. He was swiftly followed by TV presenter Ross King, who became the second elimination of the series.
According to the latest figures from Oddschecker, Neighbours star Stefan Dennis is currently the rank outsider, with odds of 150/1 to win. Despite missing movie week due to illness, he returned for week four but remains a long shot for the title.
The Final Stretch Towards The Glitterball
With just a matter of weeks left until the grand final, the competition is fiercer than ever. The remaining couples are tirelessly rehearsing, aiming to secure their place in the final and a chance to lift the coveted Glitterball Trophy. The upcoming Blackpool week is always a pivotal moment in the series, often separating the contenders from the rest of the pack.
As the live shows continue, the public's votes will become more critical than ever in deciding which celebrity and professional dancing pair will be crowned the champions of Strictly Come Dancing 2025.
