Strictly Come Dancing's Sarah Hadland to 'miss out on Glitterball Trophy' in heartbreaking blow
Strictly Come Dancing star Sarah Hadland and her partner Vito Coppola have been dealt a heartbreaking blow just hours before the final.
Since the series began, the bookmakers have been sharing their theories about who will be eliminated each week, and so far, their predictions have been pretty accurate.
On Saturday night, the four remaining celebrities will take to the dancefloor for the last time before one is finally crowned the winner.
And while Sarah has impressed the judges week after week, she could miss out on lifting the Glitterball Trophy to Chris McCausland.
Betway’s Mike Reading broke down the latest odds ahead of this weekend’s Strictly Come Dancing final - and it looks like Chris McCausland is the favourite to lift the Glitterball Trophy.

Mike shared: “Chris McCausland has been an absolute star this series, and the odds suggest he’s ready to quickstep his way to victory. Priced up at 1/12, he’s the shortest-priced favourite to win the final in Strictly history.
"The latest odds give him and dance partner Dianne a staggering 92 percent chance of lifting the Glitterball Trophy on Saturday night. It’s clear that their journey together has captured the nation’s hearts!
“This weekend, the judges will score the dances as usual, but their marks won’t influence the result—it’s entirely in the hands of the public. With Chris’s devoted fans behind him, anything less than a win would be a major upset!"
Mike added: “Meanwhile, JB Gill has been turning up the heat in recent weeks and looks like Chris’s closest competition albeit at a distant 14/1. Tasha found herself in the dance-off last weekend despite finishing second on the leaderboard, suggesting her public support is wavering, and she finds herself the big outsider at a price of 25/1.”
Last weekend, Pete Wicks was eliminated from the competition and his exit was an emotional one.
Pete and his professional dance partner, Jowita Przystal, found themselves in the dreaded dance-off for the first time, competing against Tasha Ghouri and her professional partner, Aljaz Skorjanec.
With three votes in favour, Pete and Jowita were sadly eliminated from the competition, missing out on a spot in next week's final.
When asked about his experience on the show, Pete responded: "It's been beautiful! It's been wild. I've been quite honest about the fact that I didn't necessarily want to do this [Strictly] in the first place, but everyone else wanted me to do it, and I am so, so glad that I did it!
"You don't always have to be the best, but if you enjoy something then why shouldn't you have a go at it? I've tried my best from day one, I said I was in for a penny, in for a pound and I've done it, it's been beautiful."
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturday at 6pm on BBC One.
