Every year we look forward to watching Eurovision - the songs, the costumes, the choreography, the drama of how many points one country gives another. But how things will play out is always highly unpredictable.

One company has crunched the numbers and this is how they think Saturday will unfold for the finale of the Eurovision Song Contest.

Who is tipped to win?

Using their own research, data from Spotify and Eurovision results from 2012 onwards, clothing company Dance Direct have created an algorithm which they’ve used to predict 2019’s Eurovision winner.

Cross referencing all the data collected, they’ve predicted that Duncan Laurence from the Netherlands will win with his song Arcade.

Duncan Laurence previously participated in The Voice Netherlands, where he made it to the semi-finals.

If the prediction is right, it would be the first time in 44 years that the Netherlands would win Eurovision.

The last time they won was in 1975 with a song called Ding Dong by Teach-In.

How will the UK do?

The algorithm predicts that the UK’s entry Bigger Than Us performed by Michael Rice will place 15th in the final results.

This places us almost ten spots higher than last years result which saw the UK weigh in at 24th with Storm by SuRie, which famously was the target of a stage invasion
