The X-Factor girls have taken the show by storm this year with new girl Cheryl on track for victory in the grand final. Leading Bookmaker Sky Bet is offering 4/1 for all three of Cheryl’s acts to make the final 3 guaranteeing her first X-Factor title. The bookmaker has also installed 23 year-old Laura White as the 2/1 favourite to sing her way to ‘Leona Lewis’ stardom.

Helen Jacob, Sky Bet’s Head of PR, said: “This year punters have shown unbelievable support for the X-Factor girls. Not only is Cheryl favourite mentor but her acts together lead the contestants hopes of winning the title. It really is all about ‘X-Factor Girl Power’ this year!”

Following the departure of Bad Lashes in the last live show, another of Walsh’s acts is looking set to go this weekend as Sky Bet has Girlband as 2/1 favourite to be packing their bags. With threat looming in the air for Walsh, Sky Bet is also offering 1/5 for Louis to have no act in the grand final at all.
