BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Sarah Hadland 'to miss out on Glitterball Trophy' in devastating blow
Despite being a favourite among bookies to clinch the Strictly Come Dancing title, Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola might not get their hands on the Glitterball Trophy this year.
A supercomputer predicts that Sarah and Vito will be pipped to the post by Tasha Ghouri and Aljaz Skorjanec.
This prediction comes after the ex-Love Island star bagged three 10s for her Paso Doble during the Blackpool special of the show, earning an almost perfect score of 39 from the judges.
The supercomputer from FruitySlots.com has taken into account the latest scores to determine who is most likely to win. Tasha and her partner Aljaz Skorjanec emerged as the frontrunners with a whopping 36.2 percent probability.

Actress Sarah Hadland, following her Couple's Choice routine in the iconic Tower Ballroom, is in second place with a 16.7 percent chance of winning, while JLS star JB Gill is hot on her heels with a 14.1 percent probability.
Chris McCausland, who achieved his highest score of the series this weekend, is fifth on the leaderboard (9.4 percent).
At the other end of the scale, Pete Wicks is predicted to be the next celebrity to bow out. Despite being a crowd favourite, the reality star's chances of winning are slim, with a mere 3.9 percent probability.
According to the calculations, Montell Douglas also ranks low with an 8.6 percent chance.
A spokesperson for FruitySlots.com said: “Tasha Ghouri has been dazzling audiences week after week, and it appears she’s in with a good chance of waltzing her way to victory. Following the highly anticipated Blackpool special, the former Love Island star has emerged as a firm favourite to go all the way.
“However, the competition is heating up, with actress Sarah Hadland and JLS star JB Gill also vying for the top spot. Our Supercomputer predicts this talented trio as the most likely stars to lift the Glitterball trophy, but with the stakes higher than ever, one misstep could make all the difference - let’s hope they don’t put a foot wrong!”
One more celebrity will be eliminated on Sunday - and according to the bookmakers' latest odds, it's not looking good for Pete Wicks.
The ex-reality star and his dance partner, Jowita Przystal, are in danger of exiting the competition this weekend.
Betway spokesperson Mike Reading remarked: "Following the glitz and glamour of Blackpool and Wynne Edwards' elimination, the Strictly contestants are back in the ballroom to face another challenging week.
"This weekend, the stars will have to perform their usual routines and participate in a Samba-thon in hopes of progressing to everyone's favourite - Musicals Week. Reality star Pete Weeks is the 5/6 favourite to depart the dance floor this weekend, despite having been saved from the dance-off twice this series. Another dance-off survivor, Montell Douglas, isn't far behind and is priced up at 3/1 to Samba her way out."
"Meanwhile, Chris McCausland continues to lead as the favourite to advance to next week after delivering a flawless American Smooth at the renowned Blackpool Tower Ballroom, earning an impressive 37 out of 40 from the judges."
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturday at 7.05pm on BBC One.
