The biggest prediction tool online has become a social game where you, the readers of esctoday.com, are asked to predict the outcome of each semi-final and the grand final. Exactly one month before the actual shows, here are some interesting facts, for your eyes only!

Which are the top 3 countries per show?

We can reveal that the hot favourites are also the winners of the semi-finals in our poll. For semi-final 1 the most interesting fact is that the second and third places; they are taken by one outsider which is riding high in betting odds without being in the top three, and a favourite which is falling down in betting odds. Semi-final 2 features a similar pattern. The first three spots are taken by hot favourites, but this time it is not clear where the second and the third places will go to.

Who will we miss in the final?

Only four points away from the 11th place, Estonia will make it to the final along with Slovenia in our poll. Two female singers, a male singer and three bands are the unlucky ones from the first semi-final. The second semi-final is full of surprises. It seems that a one expected qualifier is going the wrong way and if this is going to be the actual result, this country will be awarded the Kate Ryan bad luck award.  Most of the outsiders are countries from the 2012 final.

What about the points?

In the first semi-final, only one country has received one digit number of votes, while in the second semi-final, the bottom countries are four, and one of them has zero points and Latvia only one today.
