Our players don’t have the best track record for predicting the result of Sanremo. Last year, over 1/3 of players predicted that Ermal Meta would win, while only 7.4% predicted Måneskin’s victory.
In 2020, almost 50% of our players predicted that Elodie would win Sanremo 2020. Meanwhile, eventual winner Diodato received only 5% of the predictions. Back in 2019, only around 1% of players accurately predicted Mahmood’s win.
Members of the ESCXTRA team may be delighted by this result, as they also selected “Ciao Ciao” by La Rappresentante di Lista as their winner in our XTRA Decides feature.
After each national final, the points will be assigned and you will receive a rankings update via our Eurovision Prediction platform. Furthermore, we will make sure to notify you via our Eurovision Prediction Facebook page, our Eurovision Prediction Twitter page and here on the ESCXTRA website. The player that accumulates the most points after all the rounds have taken place will be crowned the winner of Eurovision Prediction 2022!
In 2021, our 363 prediction players predicted the correct national winners 7 out of 13 times. The year before, in 2020, 10 of out 27 times…an all-time low. To be fair, 2020 was a very unpredictable year in general. In 2019, our Eurovision Prediction players collectively predicted 16 out of 29 national final winners correctly. In 2018, your record was 19 out of 30.
So far, we count 25 national finals for 2022, so there will be PLENTY of points up for grabs!
