Dancing On Ice Odds: Ferdinand Favourite To Go Next But Injured Chris Could Quit

Dancing on Ice will nudge over the halfway stage of series 17 this weekend, and bosses will be hoping the remaining competitors can stay injury-free after a third star quit. 

Professional ice skater Vanessa Bauer has become the latest to withdraw from the show due to injury, following in the icy footsteps of contestants Josh Jones and Dame Sarah Storey. 

Comedian Josh was forced to quit earlier this series after he sustained an ankle injury, while iconic Paralympian Sarah didn't even make the first episode before withdrawing hurt.

Last Sunday, Steve Redgrave became the latest star to be eliminated from the series. 

It didn't come as a huge surprise after the Olympic legend had been 11/8 favourite on betting sites to go next, and he finished bottom of the leaderboard after all three of his skates. 

Anton's Final Whistle? 

Anton Ferdinand could follow in Steve's footsteps this weekend. 

The former footballer is the 11/8 favourite on betting apps to be eliminated next, and a massive 40/1 outsider with BoyleSports to win the competition.

However, former West Ham United defender Anton did everything right last Sunday, scoring 34 points to put him joint-second on the leaderboard.

But if the prices are anything to go by, he could face a hammer blow this weekend and depart the series. 

Anton's main hopes for survival look to lie with ex-EastEnders actress Charlie Brooks, who is 5/2 to go next, and former Love Island star Chris Taylor, who is 2/1 second favourite for a weekend exit. 

Charlie scored a respectable 31 points last Sunday, but Chris was closer to bottom-placed Steve after putting 28.5 points on the board.

Chris' Injury Woe 

However, Chris could have other issues. 

Earlier this week, the reality TV star told how he is being "held together by Sellotape" due to his injuries on the show. 

Chris has a recurring arm injury, in which one of his limbs goes "dead" and it affects his ability to perform lifts.

He told the Not My Bagg YouTube channel: "It’s an absolute pogo stick of emotions. It’s wild.

"My arm goes dead - not in a fun way or a good way, it just goes dead.

"During training, I can’t lift anymore, so they have to fix that, yeah. I’m holding it together - I’m basically held together by Sellotape at the minute.

"There’s a lot of minor injuries cropping up."

After his pro-ice-skating partner Vanessa was forced to quit the contest, she was replaced by Robin Johnstone just 24 hours before last Sunday night's performance. 

Things didn't get off to a great start in Robin and Chris' first skate, as they suffered a fall, but they kept calm and carried on. 

However, following Chris' injury report, he is into Evens favourite to be the next star to quit the show early.

Dan Edgar was last Sunday night's top scorer with 35 points.

Following his exploits, Dan is into 6/1 with William Hill, from 7/1 last week, just behind 9/2 third favourite Mollie Pearce. 

The Traitors star Mollie and Coronation Street star Sam Aston were pushing Michaela all the way for victory recently, but both have drifted following Sunday night's performances.

Sam is out to 7/2 with BetVictor, from 3/1, but the Corrie star, Mollie and Dan still have the best chances of catching Michaela. 

What's more, it remains 1/2 for Dancing on Ice to end after the current series, and judges and ice skating icons Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are 8/15 to quit the show after season 17.
