Our traders have revealed the most likely winners at this year’s Oscars.

Christian Bale is Evens favourite to take home the Best Actor award for his portrayal of Dick Cheney in Vice.
He’s followed in the betting by 5/4 shot Rami Malek for Bohemian Rhapsody and 6/1 chance Bradley Cooper for A Star Is Born.
Meanwhile, Alfonso Cuaron is clear favourite at 1/8 to scoop the Best Director gong, with Glenn Close odds-on at 4/9 for Leading Actress, ahead of The Favourite star Olivia Colman 4/1.
