One day after the departure of Sanremo 2022, the fever is growing for the event which is the only one to produce an average audience of more than 10 million people for over four hours for five consecutive days.
Of course, the wait is to finally be able to listen to the musical proposals of the 25 singers in the competition.
This year the only category competing at the Festival will be called "Artists".
For all 25 it will be a race without eliminations to reach the final evening with the announcement of the winner, thanks to a renewed voting mechanism.
There are real myths of Italian song such as Morandi, Ranieri, Rettore and Zanicchi.
But also the record successes of recent years, such as Blanco, Mahmood, Rkomi, Aka 7even, Sangiovanni.
A list where seven winners of the Festival coexist and names that the general public has yet to fully discover, such as Ditonellapiaga rather than Giovanni Truppi.
A very open challenge that already has some clearly favorites for bookmakers. In fact, according to the English bookmaker Stanleybet, the two most likely to compete for the victory should be Elisa, who shows up with the song "Or maybe it's you", and Mahmood in the race paired with Blanco with the song "Chills": both are given at 4.50. In third place Emma Marrone, also winner of the festival in 2012, who with “Every time is like this” is quoted at 8.00. While the List Representative, a musical duo that in 2021 was eleventh in the final ranking of the Festival, with the song “Ciao Ciao” is given at 9.00. Sangiovanni with “Farfalle” is fifth on Stanleybet quoted at 10.00. It also seems that there is almost certainly a last place, at least always according to the odds of the English bookmaker. This is Iva Zanicchi,legend of Italian music who returns to the Festival after 13 years from the last participation with the piece "I want to love you" and which is quoted at 75.00. This despite the three victories of the Sanremo Festival in the 1967, 1969 and 1974 editions. The only artist to have won three editions of the Festival from 1951 to today, below only Domenico Modugno and Claudio Villa, both with four victories.
The infographic created by DataMediaHub for ANSA provides the details of the quotes of each of the 25 artists in the competition. The landscape changes slightly according to the odds of Sisal, which in addition to the bets on who will be the winner also offers the possibility of betting on a series of combinations such as who will be the musicians on the podium rather than, on the contrary, who will be the last classified. . Also in this case there seems to be no doubts regarding the favorites, who also for Sisal would be Elisa on an equal footing with the Mahmood & Blanco couple. As well as clearly disadvantaged Iva Zanicchi who is even given at 100.00. Compared to Stanleybet Emma is overtaken by The Representative of List, Achille Lauro and Sangiovanni, all given at 9.00. The prices of Gianni Morandi and Massimo Ranieri improve,which, however, according to the Italian betting site, do not have many chances of winning, as shown by the other infographic we made.
