Who will win EUROVISION 2025? - Early prediction

[@doyourmath826]

I love way too early predictions

[@eurovisionhistories]

Hehe ;)

[@eoghandowney537]

Love early predictions. I have a feeling that Finland 🇫🇮 and/ or at least one of the Baltic countries will come with a strong entry in 2025.

The Netherlands did also announce that they will participate in 2026. Crazy that it was so uncertain if they would even participate in 2025 and now everything is suddenly fine again.

[@laurasecco-nl5vs]

well, not suddenly. Only after the ebu has implemented a number of changes.

[@rheffic1971]

Estonia! if Tommy Cash wins Eesti Laul, as I suspect he will, then he could well emulate Käärijä and Baby Lasagna by finishing a gallant second.

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

It would certainly give Estonia a much needed boost when they were doing badly with the televoters. He needs to have a song that has televoter AND jury appeal to do well. The juries might tank him since his songs are normally quite 'fun'

[@zhenia2511]

​@@TheManInBlueFlames Baby Lasagna and Kaarja weren't just fun. They were meaningful. I don't know if Tommy Cash can pull this off.

🇸🇪 🇮🇹 🇺🇦 will do well. 🇩🇪 🇳🇴 🇫🇮 🇳🇱 🇬🇧 🇮🇪 want to do well. But all these countries have won not so long ago compared to 🇫🇷 (47 years) and 🇪🇸 (55 years), these 2 are trying and waiting since so long time 😭 so it's largely time, and 🇲🇹 🇨🇾 🇮🇸 🇭🇷 🇱🇹 🇸🇮 waited for their first win the most so far, so my wish for 2025 is to see one of them 🇪🇸 🇫🇷 🇲🇹 🇱🇹 🇨🇾 🇮🇸 🇭🇷 🇸🇮 winning.

Actually, Cyprus is the country with the longest wait. But tbh, France and Spain are long overdue.

@@diekommentarekommentiererin Actually after having check, Malta entered the contest in 1971, Cyprus in 1981, Iceland in 1986, Croatia, Lithuania and Slovenia in 1993.

My prediction excluding the big 3: 1. Estonia( expecting them to pick tommy cash) 2. Germany ( a lot of submissons) 3. France ( simular trajectory as Switzerland) 4. Finland ( a great national selection) 5. Belgium ( if they learn how to stage)

[@PhilomenaCunkESC]

I don't think Norway wants to win anymore. NRK is cutting their budget, and there is no clear vision when the system is changing every year. It is also harder to get artists to participate due to the war

[@thedzastin0713]

Mines are either France, Finland and Croatia. I know Finland has been quite unstable, but they could get a win this or next year. I have a feeling that France might surprise us and keep a consistent streak of great results and eventually winning. Croatia might keep the momentum and send another outstanding song and winning.

[@alauddinsayuti7783]

This is what Eurovision should be. Always with early bird vibe

[@melodyjohn_]

Hopefully a country, which has never won before, will win. I would love to see Germany, Estonia, Finland or Norway winning too though :)

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

The winner will be whoever the jury winner wants it to be...unless the televoters landslide a good entry for non-political reasons somehow but I can't see this. Whilst I wouldn't say they're gonna win, I'd say the Netherlands, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Latvia, Montenegro and Estonia all have chances of doing better than normal, especially the latter if Estonia picks Tommy Cash! A lot of changes to NFs and song selections that could benefit those countries.

[@phuttyyt]

I've a feeling that if the 2025 winner is another case of the jury 'overriding' the public (not that I see if that way myself) the EBU might be forced to address the issue and change something. I do wonder though whether the last couple of years haven't at least partly been a result of making the semis televote-only, since you could argue - in theory - that fewer entries make it to the final which the juries might otherwise vote for, thereby concentrating their votes around fewer entries and leading to bigger jury winners. We haven't had enough of a sample to be able to demonstrate that with any statistical confidence, of course, and the [jury] winners we got in 2023 and 2024 were fairly obvious ones. But yeah, the mere optics of the jury prevailing over the televoters again could see the EBU doing something about the 'problem'.

[@ullarajala4784]

I was thinking that this was way, way, way too early for a prediction video, but it actually made sense. It was nice to see Finland there. There is this eternal hope in Finland and UMK has delivered a series of cracking songs in Finnish. But unlike you said, the Windows95man's win was down to the audience showingng a middle finger to the 'establishment' and voting for FUN instead of worthy Paskana that was the jury winners and expected one as well. Paskana may have done well!

[@tayl0rswiftL0ver123lgb]

ITS THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN!!

[@sarahenchanted]

so I'm gonna predict countries I think could win in the next few years (so 2025-30 range) since who knows what'll happen next May lmao. Ukraine, Sweden, and Italy are my "auto qualifiers" since I have them on a high pedestal lol. Armenia - they've been on a solid streak since 2022 and them announcing participation and bringing back their NF gives me hope they can finally do it soon. We'll see how the NF goes but still. Finland - aside from Sweden they're the Nordic country I see as most likely to win again very soon. UMK is amazing, they've been on a good path since 2021, and I think they have unfinished business from 2023. France - I'm a tiny bit skeptical here (mostly because sometimes they'll get winner hype but it doesn't materialize) but ultimately they have the tools to pull it off Lithuania - their qualification streak since 2021 (i think they've would've easily qualified in 2020) is impressive and they're not the same country they were before The Roop imo. Yeah they tend to get midtable results and need to pack more of a punch but I believe they can pull it off. Luxembourg - obviously we'll see what they do for 2025 but the 2024 nf gave off the vibe that they wanna host very soon. Netherlands - they clearly wanna do a comeback story arc and a fire has been lit under them (already confirming participation for 2026 is insane lmao) Portugal - they've (mostly) been on a hot streak since 2017 and could do it again. I think ultimately they need a song that's both jury and televote friendly but considering how strong FDC has been and their Eurovision results aren't too shabby I won't rule them out. Serbia - yeah they might be kinda inconsistent in terms of results but PZE is a strong NF (and my personal favorite) and the lowest result they've ever gotten is NQing at 11th place a couple times. The right song and artist may come sooner rather than later and they may pull it off. Switzerland - they select their songs with care and their approach since 2019 has worked very well for them. Idk if it'll happen again so soon but they're starting to join the ranks of Sweden/Ukraine/Italy in my eyes Countries I want to put in the above list but won't atm for some reasons Belgium - mostly because they're inconsistent due to 2 different broadcasters with different approaches switching off every year. If I placed a bet on which broadcaster could pull out a win it would be the Flemish one. Croatia - ultimately I need to see what they do for 2025. After Baby Lasagna's success I can see solid artists who didn't think much of Dora and Eurovision give it a go. I don't know nor really think they'll win 2025 per se but if they can comfortably qualify and at least get around 15th-17th place they may become one to watch. Estonia - this is mostly because Tommy Cash seems to be the one to beat with Eesti Laul since he's probably one of the biggest acts in Estonia. His music is in the same vain as Käärijä and Joost (arguably way more vulgar lmao) so if he did go to Eurovision and with a good song I could see him as a contender. Obviously we need to hear the songs first and Eesti Laul kinda struggles with picking songs that scream Eurovision winner so we'll see. Germany - I could see them being a dark horse for "big 5 country that isn't Italy that wins next". We'll see how things go with Stefan Raab running the ship and the new approach to the NF. Ireland - this just depends on how they approach 2025, similar to Croatia. Norway - I have hope for them but after their most recent result I can see them playing it safe and sending generic scandipop and not taking big risks. We'll see what happens, but I am interested in the new NF format. And then there's always the possibility a country that normally doesn't get great results sneaks up on us (ie Latvia, Georgia, Moldova, Albania, Slovenia, etc)

[@sirimono]

I believe Tommy Cash for Estonia might be next years Käärijä and public vote winner 🇪🇪

Heyyyy happy you are back 😀Very interesting your analysis. I agree there are new great opportunities for some countries. For my country Belgium it's always a surprise haha, a good or bad one 😉I am happy that the Netherlands will be back. Not with Joost Klein again, there was a lot of speculation about that, but he has denied it. I hope the best for Germany as well, a new start. Finally Slimane is in trouble these days, but that's another story....

[@oehlbormturn]

If I were to put any money on anyone right now, it would be Estonia, since it seems like they will carry the torch from Kaarja and Joost this year

I don't know if my country will succeed this year like we usually do, because we changed the head of Vidbir. I don't particularly trust Tina's judgment, but we still have a lot of people gunning for the prestige and exposure, so I remain cautiously hopeful. I want to see Germany do better. I want Ireland to continue their weird streak. Croatia too.

[@silencestation557]

I'm always relying more on emotions and not so much on objective analysis by predicting the next winner 😊. I hope that it will be a country who hasn't won before or has won decades ago... It would be just so beautiful, like with Switzerland this year. I cross my fingers for Lithuania and Iceland because I still think that one of them lost their first victory to covid in 2020. Also, I'm quite thrilled because my country has been mentioned as a potential winner again after many years, only because of Tommy Cash ofc. I haven't been his biggest fan tbh but I hope that he really has a good song for Eesti Laul.

[@asyasuçayan]

Here are some predictions I have (I am not saying these to be offensive towards any country, they are not based on anything aside from my intuitions, and small patterns I recognise from previous years): 1) Spain is either going to win (which is more likely) or come last in the GF. 2) Germany is going to get a top 10 result. 3) Serbia is going to get another top 5 result, like in 2022. 4) Croatia will not even qualify. 5) Latvia will go back to their NQ streak. 6) Montenegro is going to qualify and not going to get bottom 3 in the GF. But won't end up on the left side of the scoreboard, too. 7) Ireland will qualify but will get bottom 5 in the GF. 8) Lithuania will get their best result ever.

I don't know what impact this will have on the French delegation and their chances of getting a good song this year, but there are a lot of articles coming out at the moment about alleged sexual harassment and assault by Slimane.

As a Dutch ESC fan, I am a bit disappointed that we didn't keep our stand and wave participation this year to show EBU that they went WAY too far in their megalomaniac behavior. Apparently, EBU ate humble pie and made strong reformations which convinced us to enter. Lets hope this is true. Also, Ukraine does so incredbily well because everyone wants them too. Without the war they would not be so high on the rankings every year. No hate, I am 100% with Ukraine.

[@RebeccaEd]

France Ukraine Ireland Norway Iceland Lithuania = my quick predictions during your intro. Awww you mentioned Finland :') I hope we send something great! I'd really love to send a Finnish ballad, check out Jenni Vartiainen - Missä muruseni on. I'd like to send a song like this, she uses the Finnish language beautifully. Always hard to know how someone else "hears our language". If someone checks the song out, let me know what you think of the language. The lyrics are about missing the one she loves, she asks the wind to blow its way to them and play with their hair and tell them she loves them. Or I'd like to send something of the beautiful metal genre, like Nightwish, Apocalyptica, Sonata Arctica or Sturm und Drang.

As an Australian, I think Armenia should be a Potential and I think if Portugal gets an Honourable Mention for Coming 2nd in Junior Eurovision then I think Georgia needs an Honourable Mention for winning Junior Eurovision. This might be bias of me But could Australia get an Honorable Mention because of the fact that is our 10th Participation and there might be a storyline about that. I think Israel needs a mention (I'll let you decide whether its Honourable or not) however I dont think they will win I think no matter what they send even if they send Paint Drying for 3 minutes they will get a similar result to last year (maybe thats a bit extreme but the Political Nature of the Situation means People will go out of there way to make them win or lose depending on there political stance) I do think Croatia should get an Honourable mention for coming 2nd However the situation last year I think Is Corruption. There is no way you put clearly the best song you've received (unless its not and there is a better song which was lower on the reserve list or worse not even on it) on the Reserve without Corruption. Croatia can go on the Main list once its corruption is fixed.

Nice video, I think the ones that have the highest possibilities are the following: Ukraine 🇺🇦: They just know how to choose great songs and performances. They also seem to know how to create perfect stagings. The fact that they have consistently been a power house in the contest for a long time and also the big diaspora votes (which really help when it comes to televote) lead me to think that they will most likely be close to winning again. Netherlands 🇳🇱: basically as you said, I think after the problems they had last year they will probably come back aiming for revenge with a quality entry. They have also been consistently good at the contest in the last 10 years, excepting for a few times here and there. Also Joost is a superstar and all of the things that happened in 2024 might lead some artists to present an entry. France 🇫🇷: they just seem to know the formula. They have been trying to achieve good results since 2016 and they have consistently been good at the contest (not necessarily with the results but they send quality performances almost every year). They have come top 5 twice since 2021 and I really believe they are aiming for that win. If it isn’t in 2025 I’m sure they will win before 2030. Finland 🇫🇮: their situation is very similar to France’s. They have been consistently good since 2021 (excepting for 2024 and maybe 2022) and they are slowly becoming a powerhouse. Even if they sometimes don’t pick the right song, their national selection is one of the best and has an overall good quality. Spain 🇪🇸: I think this might be a bit controversial, but I think they are slowly starting to get Eurovision right since Benidorm Fest. Even if they got mediocre results apart from Chanel in 2022, I think Eaea was a stunning act and deserved much better, and Zorra was a quality act overall but I feel it was just made for the Spanish. I’ve looked at the contestants this year and I feel that the quality of Benidorm Fest will be much higher than last year. I think that Spain is slowly getting away from always finishing in the bottom positions and they should be taken into account. I think their situation is similar to Finland’s. Israel 🇮🇱: Yes, I would not like this at all and I think they should be banned from the contest. But, since they are part of the contest, I think that sadly something similar to what happened in 2024 could occur again. They could smash the televote and maybe the juries don’t bury them like in 2024 if the political situation is improved. I think this is not that likely but it could definitely happen in the worst scenario. Other options I find less likely and why: Italy 🇮🇹 (they don’t usually know how to stage), Sweden 🇸🇪 (I think it’s harder to win Melfest than Eurovision), Iceland 🇮🇸 (maybe they pick Bashar and something similar to Ukraine 2022 happens), Ireland 🇮🇪 or UK 🇬🇧 (if they finally take it seriously, they have a great industry) and Greece 🇬🇷 (I think they’re slowly starting to gain momentum since Amanda Tenfjord in 2022).
