Strictly Come Dancing Odds: McCausland Eyes Glitterball, Wicks Facing Exit

The Strictly Come Dancing stars have returned from Blackpool after their weekend away at the iconic Tower Ballroom and it's all change again for this Saturday's episode.

While they will be back in their usual Elstree Studios surroundings on Saturday night, the next episode will see the seven remaining celebrities and their professional partners take part in the return of the show's Dance-A-Thon.

After performing their main dance on Saturday, the Strictly couples will shimmy back onto the dancefloor in a bid to impress the judges with their best Samba moves in the Samba-Thon and couples will be eliminated one by one until a winner is crowned.

Most importantly, the Samba-Thon will have an impact on their overall score for the night.

Ahead of the celebrities' double dance this weekend, there has been some market movement on betting sites, which doesn't look good for one star.

Lights Out For Wicks?

Pete Wicks' Strictly stint could be over this weekend, if the next elimination market is anything to go by.

The TOWIE star is now 10/11 to depart the series on Sunday night from a best price of Evens at the beginning of the week.

He scored 27 points on Saturday night, four fewer than Wynne, who went home, but Pete is yet to have faced a dance-off in the first nine weeks of the series.

Montell Douglas has faced two dreaded dance-offs in the past three weeks and she could be the value pick to exit the dancefloor this weekend.

The Gladiators star is 7/2 with Bet365 for a Week 10 exit from 3/1 at the beginning of the week, while JB Gill is 9/2 with the same betting site.

Chris Cut For Strictly Victory Again

While Pete's price to depart the series has decreased, so has Chris McCausland's for the Glitterball Trophy.

The comedian - who is the show's first-ever blind contestant - achieved his first 10 out of 10 scores on Saturday night and punters are backing him for Strictly victory.

Chris is now 1/4 with BetVictor to win the series from 2/7 at the beginning of the week.

For weeks, Chris' main competition has been Sarah Hadland and while that is still the case, her odds have drifted this week.

Who Will Win Strictly Come Dancing 2024 Odds 

The Miranda actress is 6/1 with Betfred to lift the Glitterball Trophy next month from a best price of 4/1 a couple of days ago.

Tasha Ghouri remains a 14/1 chance and the trio already look in good shape to claim a place in the show's finale next month.

Jamie Borthwick (50/1), JB (66/1) and Pete (80/1) have all drifted this week.

JB's Perfect Score Chances Improve

While JB's chances of winning the Glitterball Trophy continue to fade, he is into 3/1 on betting apps from 4/1, to become the first star of the series to achieve a perfect 40-out-of-40 score.

It comes after it was revealed the JLS singer is to perform a Charleston, which has earned more maximum scores on the BBC Latin and ballroom show than any other routine.

However, Tasha remains the 8/13 favourite to achieve such a feat, after she recorded her third 39-out-of-40 score of the series in Blackpool last time out.

Sarah also scored 39 points in Blackpool and she is Evens second favourite for the first perfect score of the season.

The ever-improving Chris - who was awarded 37 points in Blackpool, his highest score of the series, is 9/4 to be the first to hit a series 22 maximum.
