Strictly Come Dancing star Ellie Leach could be a shoe-in to win the entire competition tonight, as her co-stars "struggle" to compete against her, according to a body language expert.
Coronation Street actress Ellie, 22, has been one of the most impressive contestants to grace the ballroom this year, and surprised professional Vito Coppola, 31, with her incredible dance skills from the very beginning.
The pair's close bond has continued to grow, with fans even convinced the duo are secretly dating as Ellie recently said she "couldn't do this" without him, and their Couple's Choice dance to a Beyonce banger only seemed to cement them as the favourites.
The duo also seem to have an almost "telepathic" connection, regularly finishing each other's sentences, and always sharing an extra-long hug and cheek kisses after completing their amazing routines.
Now body language expert Darren Stanton has tipped the pair to win the whole competition, saying they're likely to beat fellow finalists Layton Williams and Bobby Brazier.
He explained in an interview with Betfair Bingo: “Ellie put on a seamless performance this weekend. It was near perfection. She has gone from strength to strength alongside Vito.
"What’s happened with Ellie and Vito, apart from a few blips in the early stages of the competition, they’ve found a real grasp with each other.
"They’re so tactile and in such a deep place. They will literally finish each other's sentences. They almost have a telepathic connection."
The expert went on to say that the pair's "consistency" in the competition and close friendship has reached new heights, and he's convinced that neither of the other contestants can beat them.
“Based on their consistency and high level of work, I definitely believe Ellie and Vito are going to do extremely well in the final," the body language pro continued.
"The leakage we get from them is the same type of connection and chemistry that I observed while analysing Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell on the show.
"A high degree of connection exists between those two.
"I’m tagging these to win the competition. It’s going to be a struggle for the remaining finalists to compete with Ellie and Vito," Darren finished.
As all three couples gear up for the live final, they have been working extremely hard all week on learning three incredibly different dance routines.
The couples will perform their judges' pick, their favourite dance, and end the show on their highly-choreographed show dance.
The show dance incorporates many elements from throughout the competition, and is a showcase of the couple's learned skills and everything they've performed so far.
Ellie and Vito have chosen to dance their American Smooth to Robbie Williams' Ain't That A Kick in the Head, while the judges want to see their impressive Paso Doble again to dance hit Insomnia.
The duo's show dance will be performed to a Beyonce megamix. Time will tell if the pair do enough to lift the coveted Glitterball trophy tonight.
