A combination of points from televoting and national juries decides the winner.

Each country awards points to 10 competitors based on judges’ scores and a public vote, with 12 points being the maximum awarded.

Earlier this week 37 countries competed in the semi-finals for 20 places, with the Eastern European candidates dominating the list of finalists.

Sweden’s Euphoria – a club hit by singer Loreen that has already topped the charts in four countries – is among the front runners for the prize.

Serbia, Romania and Italy are also among those tipped for success. But they will face stiff competition from Russian “Buranovo Grannies”.
