X-FACTOR LATEST ELIMINATION ODDS

Danyl Johnson has crept back into the leaders spot for the 2009 X-Factor outright winner betting market at Ladbrokes. Currently, Johnson is sitting as the 4.0 favourite with only about three other serious challengers. Keep in mind that each-way betting is available at 1/4 the odds on the top 3 finishers.Lucie Jones can be backed at 4.5, just a shade behind Johnson, and Stacey Soloman carries a 5.5 price. Joe McElderry is the highest-rated male performer and you can back him at a 6.0 price.There's a bit of a gap in the odds following McElderry as the next best-priced option is either Jamie Archer or Olly Murs at 10.0. I actually think Murs could be an outside bet here and well-priced too. Miss Frank comes in at 17.0 while Lloyd Daniels is available at 21.0.Rachel Adedeji is listed at 34.0 and then we have another massive jump in the odds as the two favourites for 2nd eviction are virtually out of it. John and Edward are at 81.0 while Rikki Loney carries a 101.0 price.Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue are in a virtual dead-heat for the Winning Manager market. Cowell is listed at 2.2 for the win while Minogue pays out at a 2.37 margin. Louis Walsh is more or less out of the running at a lengthy 13.0. Cheryl Cole remains the outside bet at 5.0.In terms of the X-Factor Second Elimination, you're looking at John & Edward (who were a good shout to go last week) as the favourites for the boot. The pair are listed at 2.75 while Rikki Loney is at 3.75. Rachel Adedeji is also a possibility with a 4.33 price tag. Lloyd Daniels and Miss Frank are both listed at 10.0 and really the only other reasonable elimination candidates barring some type of disaster.
