Eurovision 2010 logo

With the Eurovision Top 5 Prediction competition closed, we can now call it a record, with 638 entries received, and several duplicate or incomplete entries removed. You can find the complete set of predictions here.

We received predictions from 58 different countries and every one of the 39 entries has at least someone who thinks it will be in the Top 5.

For the last three years the song that won the Top 5 prediction competition, went on to win Eurovision but this year is a clearly more difficult competition to predict, based on the comments.

The song that wins this year's Top 5 prediction competition is Azerbaijan'ss Safura (right) and "Drip Drop" which is also the bookmakers favourite and for the first tme ever in the predictions contest, the other places in the Top 3 match the bookmakers odds, with Germany second and Israel third.

With very few people from Azerbaijan making predictions the winner is not the result of any major rush of national pride and on the table below, you can find the Top 5 rankings from each of the ten countries that submitted most predictions.
