After the shock of Lewis leaving the betting for Strictly Come Dancing, betting is heating up for the quarter finals. We’ve seen 2 front-runners so close that the bookies can’t call it, with Karen and George neck and neck for the win.
Latest Strictly 2025 Winners Betting Odds
- Karen Carney 4/5
- George Clarke 5/6
- Balvinder Sopal 33/1
- Amber Davies 50/1
The winner’s market looks like a straight battle between Karen and George. Before the quarter finals, Karen was the outright favourite but only scored 34 this week, while George had one of his best weeks so far. He’s really grown in the show, and that is what voters like to see. This will be an interesting battle if they both make the final.

We’ve seen Balvinder set a record for the most times saved in the dance off, so it is no surprise to see her out at 33/1. She did manage to avoid it in the quarter final, but it still looks like an outside shot for the win. The sympathy vote cannot get you the glitter ball in the end!
Amber is more surprising to see at 50/1. However, she was in the bottom 2 in the quarter finals. She did, however, drop a 40 performance in the quarters and has the potential to do the same in the final. We have seen historically that contestants with a dance/ performance background usually make the final but never actually win.
