Mord's Predictions #2
Ranks: Utmost Certainty, Positive, Good, Fair, Not good, Slim, little-to-none, None
Belgium: The Outside Shot
Belgium has constantly been shoved aside for other songs this year, however I wouldn't write off its chances of doing well. The song, which has clearly been influenced by Lorde's 'Royals', does not accommodate to everyone's tastes. This works in Belgium's favour though, as their standout entry could propel them to the final and to the left hand side of the scoreboard. Provided Loic provides a strong vocal and good staging, Belgium has a good chance of qualifying and possibly even getting a left hand finish. Belgium's chances of winning? I don't think they're very good, but it's not impossible.
Chances of qualifying: Good
Chances of winning: Slim
The Netherlands: The Shock Qualifier Victim, The Borderline Qualifier
One of the first songs this year, Trijntje's song is a feel-good anthem but fails to have a wow moment during the song. Being presented so early has meant the song has been lost in the shuffle among Eurofans, but I think the song will put up a pretty good fight for the last ticket to the final. They could shoot themselves in the foot giving their 12 to Belgium (and vice-versa), but Trijntje will provide a valiant fight for points. It will be a challenge for the Netherlands to get a hat trick, but it isn't impossible. If it gets to the final, it will be on the right hand side of the board. There are many better songs this year and I doubt the Netherlands will repeat their 1975 victory in Vienna. Their lack of friends with evident voting blocs also threatens their chances.
Chances of qualifying: Fair
Chances of winning: None
Tomorrow,
Finland and 
Greece.
