Well, for what it's worth, I've watched both of the semis and my predictions for the top four are below.

I reckon the winner will be San Marino, with Flo Rida's rapping just giving them the edge over other nations:

The April Zero Two Variant.

France should fare well, as there aren't that many slower songs in the competition this year:

There's always a novelty song that goes well with audiences and judges. Malta fits the bill here:

. . . and the song which really deserves to win, but almost certainly won't, comes from Portugal:

My only prediction is that with none of the EU countries voting for the UK we will end up with nul points. To me that's more prestigious than winning. A great pity Terry Wogan is no longer around.

I predict that Greece will give top marks to Cyprus and Cyprus will reciprocate to their Hellenic cousins.

'Both semis'? Is it like the FA Cup these days? I'm amazed it's still going!

I predict that viewers will get what they deserve.

Italy were favourites last time I looked.

So far I've only seen the ones that were in the semis. Out of that lot Malta seemed a likely high scorer to me.

Jack:
I predict that, as usual, viewers in the UK will freely admit that our entry is rubbish BEFORE the competition takes place but then say, AFTER the competition has ended, that we were cheated out of winning through political voting ;-)

Voting does tend to go along the lines of linguistic and cultural similarities (rather than strictly) political ones, LCG, but that's probably not very surprising really:

38 countries and 170 million viewers, Zebo ;-)

>>> I predict that viewers will get what they deserve

I never hope for more than a bit of fun, Douglas. So I'm never disappointed ;-)

>>> Italy were favourites last time I looked

I really, really hope that they don't win though with such an awful racket! (Am I showing my age here, do you think?)
