Girls Aloud -- Call The Shots
It\'s a fabulous slice of perfect pop from the gorgeous Girls Aloud, but does it have the legs to beat off competition from the likes of Leona Lewis? We\'re not so sure... Call The Shots\' odds are currently sitting at 22/1.

Connie Talbot - Over The Rainbow/White Christmas
She melted the hearts of nation and the judges on ITV\'s Britain\'s Got Talent earlier this year, and now seven-year-old Connie Talbot has her eye on an even bigger prize - the Christmas number one spot.

Mutya Buena Feat Amy Winehouse - B Boy Baby
With Amy Winehouse on backing vocals, a highly successful ex-Sugababe on lead vocals, and some very festive bells jingling faintly in the background, this has a good chance of success this Christmas. B Boy Baby\'s best odds are currently around 7/1.

Shaun The Sheep - Life\'s A Treat
There\'s always one comedy entry in the race to top the festive chart and this year is no exception. Shaun the Sheep has entered the fray with Life\'s A Treat, actually sung by Vic Reeves, and we have to admit, this is our personal Christmas fave. Shaun\'s odds are currently 12/1.

Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You
It\'s one of the most commercially successful Christmas songs of all time, and now, 13 years after its original release, Mariah Carey\'s All I Want For Christmas is back in the charts and climbing thanks to download sales... The bookies say she has a 12/1 chance of stealing the number one spot in time for Christmas, but what do you think?

Strictly Come Dancing - Let\'s Go Dancing
seasonal event,music,TV
Aleisha Dixon Strictly Come Dancing
Rumour has it that the Strictly Come Dancing theme tune has been turned into a song, and Strictly star Alesha Dixon is about to record it. According to reports, the single will be released in time to join the race for Christmas number one, and the bookies have given it odds of 4/1... But is Simon Cowell quaking in his tiny man-boots? We doubt it...
Malcolm Middleton - We Are All Going To Die

Malcolm Middleton - We Are All Going To Die
He\'s got
the backing of Radio 1 heavyweights Edith Bowman, Colin Murray and Scott Mills so now the bookies have decided to slash the odds of Malcolm Middleton\'s not so festive track, We Are All Going To Die, from 1000/1 to 6/1... exciting stuff!

Soulja Boy - Crank That

Soulja Boy - Crank That
It\'s started a dance craze in the playgrounds of both the US and the UK, and now the bookies have given it odds of 6/1. It certainly aint our cup of tea, but that\'s probably because we\'re too old to be listening to Chicago rap.

Sugababes - Change
seasonal event,music,Sugababes
Sugababes - Change
It\'s a power ballad destined to have teenage couples the world over smooching under the mistletoe, but we doubt it\'s strong enough to fend off the powerhouse that is X Factor... Odds are currently 4/1.

Katie Melua/Eva Cassidy - What A Wonderful World

Katie Melua/Eva Cassidy - What A Wonderful World
It\'s Terry Wogan\'s favourite for Christmas number one and it\'s all in aid of a good cause (the Red Cross appeal). The bookies are giving it odds of 7/2, so it\'s certainly bound for the top 5...

X Factor Winner - When You Believe
seasonal event,music
Rhydian X Factor
For the last couple of years, the winner of ITV\'s X Factor has been a shoo-in for the Christmas number one spot, but this year\'s finalists just don\'t seem to have that special sparkle... Can you picture Rhydian reaching number one singing a cover of a Whitney Housten and Mariah Carey duet?

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love
seasonal event,leona lewis,music
Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love
Last year\'s X Factor winner Leona Lewis has topped both the single and album charts for four weeks on the trot now, but can Bleeding Love cling on to the number one spot long enough to fend off the next X factor champion? At 2/1 - the odds are pretty good... so let\'s wait and see!
