Christmas Number One Odds Wham or Taylor Swift?

Wham! and Mariah Carey are currently the joint favorites, with 3/1 odds, to claim the UK Christmas Number One this year, according to UK bookies.

Bookmakers have placed both Wham!’s “Last Christmas” and Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” at the forefront of the festive race.

Wham! finally secured their first Christmas Number One last year with “Last Christmas,” almost 40 years after its 1984 release.

What are the odds on Wham Reaching Number 1?

Now, the late George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley are poised to repeat their success, with Mariah Carey aiming to achieve her own long-awaited festive top spot.

What about Mariah Carey?

Carey’s holiday anthem has reached the top of the charts three times but has never claimed the coveted Christmas Day position.

With a fresh cover song out this season, Carey’s track is once again a strong contender for holiday playlists worldwide.

What are the odds on Taylor Swift?

In the race for Christmas Number One, Taylor Swift and Oasis follow at 10/1, Sabrina Carpenter at 12/1, and Sam Ryder at 16/1.

How about Tom Grennan?

A notable challenger is Tom Grennan, with 4/1 odds.

His new song, “It Can’t Be Christmas,” an Amazon Music Original, might gain traction with the help of Amazon’s Alexa playlists, following in the footsteps of Sam Ryder, whose Amazon Original track reached Number 2 last Christmas.
