Lawrence on Strictly 2026 has sharpened into a betting fight, with Lawrence Robb among four contestants bookmakers now see as vulnerable before Halloween Week. Bethany Antonia sits as the 2/1 favourite for elimination, while Robb is priced close behind as the show heads into a live weekend twist.
Lewis Knowles said: “Bethany Antonia may well be the favourite for elimination going into week six of Strictly Come Dancing, but there wouldn't be much between her, Jaime, Cach and Lawrence in the betting, and all four of them will feel they are at risk of elimination this weekend.” That puts Robb in direct company with Jaime Winstone and Cach Mercer, not far from the market’s most exposed name.
Betway’s latest market
11/8 is the price now attached to Tabby Stoecker, who has moved to the head of the outright betting. Lacey Turner follows at 7/4, and Delta Goodrem is listed at 5/1, a spread that shows how quickly the title picture has shifted away from Dani Dyer and toward a narrower front group.
Lewis Knowles said: “Tabby Stoecker was as big as 12/1 to win the show only a few weeks ago, and the Olympian was a relative outsider, but she has really caught the eye over the last few weeks, and has catapulted herself to the head of our outright betting at 11/8..” He added: “Former favourite Lacey Turner still has a really solid chance of lifting this year's Glitterball Trophy at 7/4, and the market is suggesting it could be a two-horse race this year, with huge prices available for the majority of the other contestants.”
Halloween special timing
On Saturday, October 31, the Halloween special begins at 6.30pm and runs for 2 hours, ending at 8.30pm. Voting will open after that show, which makes the next phase of the competition immediate rather than deferred.
On Sunday, November 1, the Halloween results show airs at 7.10pm for 50 minutes, and it will feature a first triple dance-off in Strictly history. Shaun Wright-Phillips and Alexis Warr have already left after losing to Jaime Winstone and Carlos Gu in the dance-off, with Chris Appleton, Melanie Walters and Sarah Storey among those gone before them.
Four names, one exit
Jaime Winstone, Cach Mercer and Lawrence Robb now sit close behind Bethany Antonia in Betway’s next-departure market. That leaves Robb in a crowded danger zone, where a single results show can turn the odds on their head before the final line-up hardens.
The smart read is straightforward: Robb is not the market leader to go, but he is close enough to the top of the elimination list that Halloween Week is a real test of survival. If the triple dance-off behaves the way the market suggests, the pressure lands on the contestants clustered behind Bethany Antonia — and Robb is one of them.
