Default Little Mix - Could They Reach the Final?

Just saw that their odds have been slashed from 33/1 to 18/1 to win, matching with Johnny, and above Kitty, Sophie and Frankie.

Still fair out but its safe to say theyre 1 of the best girl groups TXF have had and they seem to have a fairly reliable fanbase.

Their odds in being Bottom 2 are 5/1 whereas The Risk are 4/1. I like the boys a lot but I dont think theyve shown no way near their full potential and Im hoping they pull it out next week. But if not they could be in for a shock elimination leaving just Little Mix as the last group which will receive support just for that and the judges will want to keep them on.

Unlikely but I reckon they have a slight chance.

I'm going with possibly. They are pretty good. Just hope they don't fall under the 'girl band' curse

Judges are really pushing them as 'just normal girls' and marketing them quite well too.

I really like them.. kind of understand why they are saying they are the best girl group now and they are really underrated as well they have connect well together and 3/4 are really good looking

I agree, but I don't think this is enough to get them to the final. =/

It would be a nice change, they have the highest like to dislike ratio of the performances of Youtube this week, & the greatest amounts of likes.

The odds are nothing to go on.

Kitty and Frankie will go soon and that will give Sophie, Misha, The Risk, Janet enough time to wow us and make their odds go up (back up in Sophie & The Risk's case)

I personally don't see it, I think they've got a good few weeks left in the show though... I'l say they'll come 5th at most.

They've got their act together and are benefitting from there being acts who still haven't pulled off a good performance, the fact that the producers and judges want them to do well and the fact that so far, to my knowledge, none of them have had a story sold on them. In the past few years you've had Hope (who had bad press), Miss Frank (who really didn't get their act together in time), Bad Lashes (didn't get it together), Girlband (bad attitude), Kandy Rain (bad press)... The show has clearly wanted to launch a big girl band for quite some time, as is evident by Simon Cowell's championing of Hope a few years ago, so I think they've been trying to get it right for a few years now. They put Bad Lashes and Girlband through and clearly hoped one of them would secure the girl band vote from the public but neither did; and then with Kandy Rain and Miss Frank they picked two opposites in the hope that one (presumably Miss Frank) would do well and that didn't happen either. I hope they do well, E.T. was a really good performance!

I want to see them do really well. As far as girl groups, they're by far the best the x factor has had! And although girl groups rarely do well, I think Hope managed about 6th a few years ago didn't they? So Little Mix will hopefully be in it for at least a few more weeks! I'd love to see them win! Just cos it's considered so unlikely!

They have a chance of winning but I'm not sure they will just because a band had never won and girlbands in particular don't get far usually. I do think though that they're going to do best after the show

I think it's also interesting to note that, other than The Conway Sisters, every other girl group has appeared in the bottom two by the third week - so they're already doing better than all of the previous girl groups, other than The Conway Sisters, and they are far more exciting to watch on stage than them. I really hope they get the votes because they're doing so well so far. E.T. was amazing.

Before the live shows started, I would have said no chance. But last week they were miles better than The Risk. I think if they can keep that level of performance they might do it.
