BBC Strictly's Pete Wicks 'to miss' final as he's dealt crushing blow before live show
Strictly Come Dancing duo Pete Wicks and Jowita Przystal are in danger of missing the final, according to bookmakers' predictions. The remaining celebrities will take to the dance floor on Saturday night, vying for a spot in the Strictly final.
Despite consistently ranking at the bottom of the leaderboard, Pete has been saved week after week. However, his luck may run out this weekend.
Betway's Mike Reading shared his thoughts on the betting as we near the semi-final of this year's competition: "The latest odds suggest this week's Strictly elimination is a two-horse race between Pete Wicks (4/9) and JB Gill (9/4) to stay in the competition.
"Pete has been at the bottom of the leaderboard for three consecutive weeks, making him the odds-on favourite to leave this Sunday. However, he's never faced the dreaded dance-off thanks to unwavering public support."
He added: "Pete will need every vote he can muster this weekend as the pressure ramps up with couples performing two dances each. If it comes to a dance-off, it's tough to see him outshining JB, who topped the leaderboard just last week!

BBC Strictly Come Dancing contestant Tasha Ghouri dominates the leaderboard and is the most likely to lift the Glitterball Trophy.
According to a supercomputer from FruitySlots.com, which has factored in the latest scores, Tasha and her partner Aljaz Skorjanec have a 42.7 percent probability of winning.
Sarah Hadland is in second position with a 21.1 percent probability of winning, ahead of the semi-final. JLS star JB Gill, who topped the leaderboard on Saturday night, follows closely at 19.9 percent, making him the third most likely to secure the winning spot this year.

"Fan favourites Pete Wicks and Chris McCausland now face a tough challenge, with both at risk of missing out on a spot in the BBC One grand finale.
"Following Montell Douglas' exit on Sunday night, our supercomputer predicts that either contestant could be the next to leave. With the Glitterball Trophy now within reach, it's anyone's game - who will step up and secure their place in the final?"
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturday at 6.30pm on BBC One.
