There's only 10 countries (active this year at least) that have not had a top 10 result so far this decade. Who do you think will break that curse in Tel Aviv next month? Choose as many as you like!

For reference, the following are these 10 countries best results so far:

Finland - 11th (Softengine - Something Better - 2014)
United Kingdom - 11th (Blue - I Can - 2011)
Croatia - 13th (Jacques Houdek - My Friend - 2017)
Montenegro - 13th (Knez - Adio - 2015)
North Macedonia - 13th (Kaliopi - Crno I Belo - 2012)
Slovenia - 13th (Maja Keuc - No One - 2011)
Switzerland - 13th (Sebalter - Hunter Of Stars - 2014)
Iceland - 15th (Pöllaponk - No Prejudice - 2014)
Belarus - 16th (Alyona Lanskaya - Solayoh - 2013)
San Marino - 24th (Valentina Monetta - Maybe - 2014)

god imagine Montenegro slaying as if it were 2002 once more

though I can strangely see San Marino having a chance of connecting a little?

I would be so here for a San Marino top 10 finish but at the same time would be gutted it wasn't Valentina who did it for them.

Pretty depressing that we’ll have gone a whole decade without a top 10 sad.gif

Mostly justified of course though Molly was particularly robbed.

Switzerland and Iceland I'm pretty sure of, Slovenia I could also see but that could go either way. San Marino might get like 15th but I can't see them top 10, and the rest no chance.

I'd mostly echo everyone else's assesments re: who's likely to get a top 10. Switzerland and Iceland are probably the best placed and I guess there's some alternate timeline where, say, North Macedonia are the only ex-Yugo country that qualify and/or Belarus really captures the imagination of Eastern Europe or the juries get really into mid 00s winners singles and really push the UK way higher than it deserves to be.

I think Switzerland and Iceland are locks (in fact I think they’re both on for top 5 finishes), and aside from the UK for obvious reasons, I will stick my neck out and say none of the others will even qualify.

Switzerland for sure and I'm pretty sure Iceland will be there too. Slovenia is a real wildcard in that I don't know exactly how it'll go down but that's the other one that could make it. The other 7, no way.

Switzerland are a dead cert. Slovenia could also do extremely well and cut through with a mesmerising performance. I don’t any of the others causing any real bother. The UK will need to exceed expectations to get out of the bottom five IMO.

I’m also in isolation that Iceland are a borderline qualifier? I genuinely think juries will hate it and televotes will really need to prop this up to get it over the line. I think the fan base is being extremely over zealous with Iceland this year. That said, I’d like them to get a spot because it’s Iceland and also for the sake of “contrast”.

ngl I will be pretty salty if North Macedonia gets top 10 with this when they couldn’t even touch the final with Eye Cue mad.gif

Definitely gonna say Switzerland will have the best chance, with possibilities of Iceland/Slovenia/UK possibly scraping it. I REALLY want Like It to make it but I have a feeling it will just miss out sad.gif

Eye Cue were robbed, until you consider the live performance of it was drastically bad. Great song though.
