Bookies give odds for who the winning professional will be on this year's series of Strictly
Betting remains available for who the winning professional on this year's Strictly Come Dancing will be with a whole host of potential winners on the show with more than 17 professionals in the market.
UK Betting Sites put former winner Giovanni Pernice as the outright favourite in the winning professional market just 2 years on from an emotional win with Rose Ayling-Ellis.
Last year's series saw him in an all-male partnership with Richie Anderson but that couple were eliminated in week 3 and Pernice will be hoping to have a better performance this year if he is picked as a professional.
Betway have him as the 8/1 favourite in the betting market to win the show just ahead of popular dancer Johannes Radebe who is second favourite at 9/1.
Strictly Winning Professional 2023 | Odds | Probability |
---|---|---|
Giovanni Pernice | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Johannes Radebe | 9/1 | 10.0% |
Dianne Buswell | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Lauren Oakley | 12/1 | 7.7% |
Gorka Marquez | 14/1 | 6.7% |
What the expert says...
Giovanni Pernice will be looking to get back to winning ways in this year's series of Strictly Come Dancing after winning the series two years ago. Last year though he finished in 14th place and a much better performance will be wanted this year!
Amy Dowden remains determined to be on the show after cancer diagnosis
Strictly professional Amy Dowden gave fans a further update following her breast cancer diagnosis earlier this year with hopes of returning to Strictly.
Dowden told the Daily Mirror, “I’m visualising myself on that Strictly dance floor. Just being back in the ballroom with the live audience, the adrenalin and the atmosphere."
BBC bosses have long said that the door is open for Dowden to return and her popularity on the show will make sure that it happens.
