Manchester big market movers to host Eurovision, coming in from 7/1 to 3/1 to host next year's Contest
Manchester are the big market movers to host Eurovision next year with their odds dropping from 7/1 to 3/1 with bookmakers.
The last UK winner of Eurovision Katrina Leskanich, who won the show with her band Katrina and The Waves, has backed Manchester to host the Contest.
Leskanich said that Manchester would be "at the very top of my list as it meets all of the criteria," which is big backing for the City.
Birmingham were the last UK hosts of the Song Contest, back in 1998 at the NIA.
Odds also available for host of the show, with Graham Norton 1/4 favourite for that role
There's also a betting market for who will be the host of the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, with Graham Norton leading the way at 1/4.
Norton has been a commentator for the event for the last 13 years, taking over from Sir Terry Wogan in 2009.
Rylan Clark-Neal is second favourite in the market at 1/2 and has regularly been involved in the BBC's coverage of Eurovision.
Rylan and Scott Mills were presenters across Eurovision week this year and Mills is 5/1 to be a host of co-host at the Grand Finals next year.
