Eurovision 2023: The First Impression: Cyprus


 First Thoughts:

Cyprus has slightly changed the recipe that was following since Fuego back in 2018, sending a slow tempo entry.

They are lucky because Semi - Final 2 could boost their chances and create some momentum before the Final.


'Broken Heart' is a potential Top-3 candidate for the Semi and why not, if the Austrian staging is a mess, could be a contender.

The male vocalists are not that many this year, and this fact could also help Cyprus achieve a left-hand side result in the Final.

One way or the other, Cyprus' spot at the Final is secured and remains to be seen if they could overachieve. 

12th -18th is where I would currently place Cyprus. This could be the best result since Fuego.


 It reminds me of...

Cyprus '17


Televoting Potential: 7/10

Jury Potential: 7/10

Staging Potential: 7/10

Momentum: 6/10

My Opinion: 7/10

Total: 34/50


What the fair winning chance % would be?

0.3% - 0.6%

Best case scenario:

Reaching Top-10

Worst case scenario:

Bottom-5 in Final

To Qualify or Not to Qualify? That's the question.

80% chance to qualify


What do I see in my crystal ball?

Cyprus securing a place in the Final and finishing mid-table. Potentially Top-3 in the Semi - Final as well.
