In 2019, Sergey Lazarev will go to Eurovision from Russia. Many fans are interested in what song the artist will perform at the largest music competition and whether he will be able to bring the long-awaited first place to his country. Famous bookmakers and celebrities have already shared their opinions.

Eurovision 2019: basic information

This season, the music festival will take place in Tel Aviv, Israel. The first stage will start on May 14th, so the participants do not have much time to prepare. Sergey Lazarev admitted that although this is already his second appearance on the Eurovision stage, his nerves are still at the limit.

It is worth recalling that in 2016 the Russian artist took third place in the music competition with the song "You are the only one", which is still considered an international hit.

Together with Lazorev in 2019, they fought for the opportunity to participate in Eurovision:

• Manizha;
• Egor Creed;
• Olga Buzova;
• Elena Temnikova;
• Phillip Kirkorov;
• Alexander Panayotov.

Fans of the Leningrad group suggested sending Sergei Shnurov to the competition. But this idea was not taken seriously, since this Russian singer has a rather specific musical style that not everyone can understand.

Chances of winning

Like last time, Philip Kirkorov became the producer of Sergei Lazarev for Eurovision 2019. It remains to be seen which song the artist will perform in front of the judges, but some information was still leaked to the press.

Lazarev himself said in the Good Morning TV show that the lyrics were written by Philip Kirkorov and a famous Greek composer. The singer assures that he is not going to the competition in order to take revenge or prove to someone. For him, the most important thing is to adequately represent Russia and not let his fans down.

Many are intimidated by the fact that history repeats itself. And the performance from Russia will be too sugary and in some sense "childish". Because of this, there is a risk that Lazarev will not reach the final at all. But Kirkorov assures that no one has seen this yet - Seryozha will perform an incredible ballad accompanied by an orchestra.

What the bookmakers say

Professionals have already summed up the necessary calculations, thanks to which it can be concluded that it is Sergey Lazarev who will win Eurovision 2019. His chances are estimated at 13%, and this is an incredibly high figure, especially for a person who does not rush to present his composition.

It also reveals suggestions about which other countries will make it to the final. Among them are likely to be:

• Israel;
• Spain;
• France;
• Germany;
• United Kingdom.

But no one knows what will actually happen. We just need to hope that Sergey Lazarev will show a decent result for Eurovision 2019 and the whole world will hear what song the representative of Russia in Israel performed.
