Anton Ferdinand could face a devastating blow this weekend as Week Five could be the end for the former footballer, new data has revealed.
Last week, Ferdinand and his partner Annette Dytrt came second on the leaderboard with a score of 34 points and tied alongside Michaela Strachan and Mark Hanretty.
Whilst Ferdinand has been a firm favourite with the viewers across his time on the show, new data has analysed it could come to a bittersweet end.
Ferdinand is sitting firmly at the bottom of Betfred’s odds with 33/1 chance of being eliminated from the competition tonight.

Love Island star Chris Taylor follows promptly behind with odds of 25/1, whilst EastEnders star Charlie Brooks is currently sitting at 16/1.
At the other end of the spectrum, Michaela Strachan is soaring with betting odds of 6/5 of being eliminated from the competition.
Sam Aston is sitting at 3/1, whilst Mollie Pearce is comfortably sitting at 9/2.
Analysing the latest odds, Betfred’s Kayley Cornelius said: “It’s been a tough week for fan favourite Mollie Pearce, who’s seen her position in the betting markets take a hit.

“When the odds were first released, the former Traitors star was the frontrunner with odds as short as 7/4.
“But it’s been a bit of a downward slide for her since week one. Things took a turn when Countryfile star Michaela Strachan wowed everyone right from night one, proving to be a natural on the ice and strong competition. She quickly became the new favourite, pushing Mollie out of the top spot.
“To make matters worse, Sunday night saw a surge of support from punters for Corrie’s Sam Aston, who’s now sitting at 3/1 odds to win. He’s overtaken Mollie for second place, with her odds now drifting out to 9/2.”
Last week, Sir Steve Redgrave said goodbye to the ice rink and hung up his skates as became the third star to be booted from the competition.

Redgrave and his partner Vicky Ogden joined hosts Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern to say their goodbyes.
He expressed gratitude for his time on the show before doing one final lap of the studio and added: “It’s been absolutely amazing and this young lady’s been incredible. I haven’t enjoyed falling over.”
They were once again not given an opportunity to fight for their position in a skate-off which has been standard format in previous years.
Instead, they left immediately, but Willoughby revealed the feature will be reinstated tonight.
