With just hours to go before the Covers Night of the Sanremo Festival 2026, attention is focused on the 30 artists in the Campioni category called on to reinterpret an Italian or international classic on the Teatro Ariston stage. The fourth night's outcome will be decided by the combined vote of the Televoto (public phone/app vote), the Press Room (TV and Web) and the Radio Jury: a balance that makes the odds particularly sensitive both to the strength of the chosen song and to the media weight of the duet.
Below are the main odds for winning the Covers Night, along with a technical analysis of the trends emerging from bookmakers.
Odds to win the Sanremo 2026 Covers Night: the favourites
- Ditonellapiaga and Tony Pitony – 5.00 (Eurobet)
- Sal Da Vinci with Michele Zarrillo – 8.00 (Lottomatica)
- Serena Brancale with Gregory Porter and Delia – 10.00 (Snai)
- Tredici Pietro with Galeffi, Fudasca and Band – 11.00 (Goldbet)
Odds subject to change.
Assessments converge on three names: Serena Brancale, Ditonellapiaga and Sal Da Vinci. The narrow gap between the top spots points to a market that's still open, with possible shifts in the final hours.

Technical analysis of the odds
Ditonellapiaga and Tony Pitony start out ahead thanks to a combination of factors: strong social media exposure, a young audience and the potential for a solid block of votes via televote. On a night where the popular vote weighs heavily, fandom strength could make all the difference.
Serena Brancale, backed by the international presence of Gregory Porter, enjoys a uniform rating among bookmakers (odds steady at 6.00): a sign of broad confidence in the musical quality of the performance, a factor that could win over radio and the press room.
Sal Da Vinci and Michele Zarrillo represent the most "traditional" option: an adult target audience, a melodic repertoire and strong TV recognisability. The swing between 5.00 and 8.00 suggests uncertainty over how the younger audience will respond.
Among the possible surprises:
-
Patty Pravo and Timofej Andrijashenko, an elegant proposal with cross-generational appeal.
-
Fedez, Masini and Stjepan Hauser, a high-impact media combination.
-
Arisa and the Coro del Teatro di Parma, a technically solid solution, appealing to the juries.
