Before you start commenting this prediction, please, read this first!As I don't have much time to make video I'll post my GRAND FINAL PREDICTION here. This isn't made from tops or other predictions - this is just my intuition!!!. Last 3 years I guessed the winner correct, but this year is different, because almost everyone can win - there aren't only 2 or 3 songs to select from - there may be many surprises this year. But anyways I wanted to try my luck this time too. I have a feeling that this will be wrong prediction, because in average I mostly guess 3 out of 4, which means this year will be wrong as the last 3 were correct. And also - I didn't put 1 country in better and other in worse place because I liked or disliked them - NO! This is just what my intuition says about the possible winner and this is what it says now. And as I've focused on guessing the right winner, the other places may be totally wrong, because the main thing is to guess the correct winner! So here's what my intuition this time says: UK Armenia Romania4. Sweden 5. Azerbaijan 6. Ukraine 7. Russia 8. Denmark 9. Germany 10. Norway 11. Austria 12. Greece 13. Belgium 14. Belarus 15. Spain 16. Ireland 17. Moldova 18. Poland 19. Hungary 20. Switzerland 21. Estonia 22. Netherlands 23. Italy 24. Malta 25. Lithuania 26. France You can like it or dislike - whatever. This isn't my top - it's just a guess. If this wasn't a simple guess I would put many countries much higher and many lower.

Either Austria does super-well or terribly-bad. You can never know.. This year is so unpredictable.

Sounds good, but how can you have the same 26 songs in the same order? Or you're only talking about the winner?

FINAL (don't forget it is only my opinion ) 1. United Kingdom (a big fight between Armenia, probably the margin will be like 10 points or smth, either one of them surely will win) 2. Armenia3. Denmark (pulls 2001 Euroivison style with a catchy cheesy pop song, but this time it will get 3rd place, not 2nd ) 4. Sweden (this year's Margaret Berger(2013, 4th place)) 5. Ukraine (support because of that conflict going on, though the song itself is average) 6. Austria (will do shockingly well, a huge support from LGBT community and the juries will love him) 7. Azerbaijan (will be a little lower because of that voting scandal in 2013, but still finish in top10) 8. Belgium (this year's Gianluca(2013, 8th place), high points from juries) 9. Russia (less support because of the conflict, though still not out of top10, but it could be) 10. Romania (catchy dance pop song, everyone will remember them, good in televoting, don't know about the juries, but top10 for sure) 11. Spain (Spain is kinda unlucky, if they weren't in top 5 with Pastora then I don't think they will be with Ruth, though it will be near the top10) 12. Italy (They are doing quite well, though after the return this will be their ""worst" result) 13. Greece (will do well, but will miss the top10) 14. Montenegro (support from the Balkans, I think it will get only this high, maybe 12th the highest) 15. Hungary (this fan bubble will pop, a place in the middle) 16. Moldova (somewhere in the middle also, but no higher than 11th place for sure ) 17. Israel (all the other countries, which are left just fits in those places very well) 18. Estonia 19. Poland 20. Norway 21. Belarus 22. Germany 23. Ireland 24. Lithuania 25. Finland 26. France

My new predictions for each country: Albania: I think Hersi won't be able to qualify, with very little regional support. Armenia: Definitely a potential winner, though could possibly finish only 8th or so, but no lower. Austria: It's Austria, so it could still fail to qualify. But as said by someone else, there could be huge support from the LGBT communities, especially in Western Europe. Azerbaijan: Dilara will probably give her country their worst results to date, which isn't that hard a task in the first place. Belarus: Likely to fail in the semis, due to most of its neighbours being in the other semi. Belgium: I can't imagine the juries going insane over this song, plus it doesn't really appeal to the televoters, so is also likely to fail in the semi. Denmark: My least favourite song this year. I honestly hope it flops horribly, but will probably finish 16th or so. Estonia: Will finish low in the final. Finland: This probably won't fail to qualify. People say that this song is forgettable but I don't agree. Could finish just outside the top 10, but is also likely to finish near the bottom. France: If the live singing is bad, there would be nothing to stop France coming last. Georgia: It would be tragic if this song qualifies, which it is very likely not to, thankfully. Germany: Another willing contender for last place. Greece: Despite losing most of its voting buddies, Greece still can get high points from Western European countries and finish relatively high. Hungary: Hopefully the performance will match the lyrics, meaning this song actually makes sense to less intelligent people. Potential winner, but potential flop too. Iceland: Will probably fail to qualify, but people do enjoy a gimmick. Ireland: Could finish in the top 10. Israel: I think this will be a lot more popular with the televoters and the juries than "Rak bishvilo" was. I actually think that this is a potential winner. Italy: Her live performance wasn't very promising. This could be Italy's worst result since its return. Latvia: With some regional support, Latvia might just be able to scrape through to the final, but it's unlikely. Lithuania: I can't imagine this qualifying at all. FYR Macedonia: This country rarely gets support from anyone other than its neighbours, so it is likely for it to fail to qualify. Malta: I can imagine the juries rating this highly, could finish around 15th overall. Moldova: Will probably defy Hongarius' wishes and finish similarity to previous years. (I.e. 11th) Montenegro: Likely to be Montenegro's first qualification, mainly down to the juries. Netherlands: Will get nothing more than average ratings from both parties, and will fail to qualify. Norway: I think Espen is overestimated in the betting odds, this will flop. Poland: This should qualify, and place low-ish in the final. Portugal: The kind of song being sent this year by Portugal has failed to qualify on the past. Romania: Not a potential winner, but will still place high. Russia: Will probably scrape through to the finals, but will not have as much support as in previous years. San Marino: Will fail, I'm 99% sure of that. Slovenia: Will qualify and finish in a similar position to Maja Keuc. Spain: Will probably flop like Pastora did. Sweden: I don't think this will win either, but will still end up in the top 10. Switzerland: I'll go against the crowd by saying that Switzerland could finish in a good position Ukraine: This could be a runner-up. Ukraine has sent silly songs in the past and still managed to do very well. UK: This has no chance of winning in my opinion, it's too low-key, outdated and dull.
I know that I've not predicted many countries to do very well, but I'm mostly arguing against the over-estimation of some of them

I could really see Sweden winning again to be honest It'd be like a loop or so.. Despite the support they have, Spain will probably finish in the middle, the UK will perhaps just slightly miss the bottom 6 and Romania is likely to end like Germany last year.. I do not want those thing to happen as I really really really love all the songs listed above, but that's how I see it going... We might also see surprising results for countries like Iceland, Latvia or Georgia even if it's very unlikely. I think Slovenia and Poland will be the surprises of the year, the latter one because of its return maybe (After re-joining the contest in 2011, Italy came 2nd despite most of the tops disliking that entry, like in Poland's case this year). Estonia will end miserably in the bottom of the final, again Whatever the results will be, I'm sure I'll be sad because I love all the songs, really
