What the expert says..
Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham joint second favourites ahead of Euro 2024
Bookies have put Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham as the 8/1 joint second favourites in the betting market to win the Sports Personality award this year.
Kane and Bellingham will be expected to have a massive summer representing England at Euro 2024 and success will surely see their odds shorten here.
Kane was expected to have a massive 2024 starting with winning the Bundesliga for Bayern Munich but his team are now 8 points behind leaders Leverkusen in the table.

Mary Earps won the SPOTY award last year after World Cup heroics
England Lionesses star Mary Earps won the 2023 Sports Personality of the Year award following her impressive performances at the World Cup.
England were defeated 1-0 in the final by Spain but Earps made a number of big saves in that game including saving a penalty but the Lionesses still lost.
Earps had been backed into heavy favourite to win the award early on and those odds were ultimately correct as Earps was crowned SPOTY winner in December.
