The Apprentice 2024 Betting Odds: Outright Winner, Next Elimination Markets

Just nine candidates remain following the electric care advertising task – here are The Apprentice betting odds to see who is expected to be in Lord Sugar’s firing line in week nine.

The original 18 has been whittled down to nine after Noor Bouziane became the ninth candidate to exit the show. SportsLens have the latest Apprentice odds, both in relation to week nine, and who is the new outright favourite after the latest episode.

This Apprentice betting guide analyses the candidates who are expected to reach the latter stages of series 18, those who look set to be axed in the coming weeks, and everyone in-between.

Who is the Favourite to Win The Apprentice 2024?

Who Will Be the 10th Candidate to be Fired From The Apprentice?

There was to be no redemption for yet another week for Team Supream, as Noor Bouziane’s disastrous display as project manger led to her being axed from the show.

In what popular TV host Richard Osman described as the “single worst example of project management” ever on The Apprentice, Noor’s electric car advert was labelled “terrible” by Lord Sugar.

Phil Turner, who has still never been on the winning team throughout series 18, once again survived by the skin of his teeth, prompting Lord Sugar to speculate whether he is simply a “serial loser”.

Nevertheless, fans angered by his lengthy stay on social media may well get their wish as Phil continues to be warmly favoured to be next in the firing line.

Odds For Next Apprentice Candidate to Be Fired

• Phil 6/4
• Foluso 10/3
• Maura 4/1
• Paul M 11/2
• Tre 13/2
• Steve 15/2
• Rachel 11/1
• Raj 14/1
• Flo 22/1

The Apprentice Outright Betting Odds: Flo Edwards Keeps Her Spot After Another Winning Week

As we approach week nine of series 18, the makeup of the final candidates is starting to become a little clearer.

It is interesting to note that just over 65% of the winners and runners-up across all 18 series have been female. That theme looks set to continue this series, with all but two of the nine fired candidates so far being male.

This line of thought is further backed up by the fact all of the top three outright favourites, according to the latest Apprentice betting odds, are female.

Rachel Woolford played a vital role in securing the largest ever sponsorship the show has ever seen in the Formula-E task, and was once again on the winning team in the cereal task. However, she suffered her first defeat of the series in Budapest last week, which saw long-term favourite Flo Edwards regained her spot at the summit.

Flo has since kept her ‘favourite’ status for at least another week after being on the winning side with Team Nexus.

Raj has also been on the winning team every week, and continues to climb her way near the top of the market.

As for the men, Tre Lowe had his odds slashed after guiding the record-breaking winning team in the Formula-E task as project manager, but he was once again on the losing team in week eight.

Steve Darken continues to quietly climb the market week-by-week, and his odds were boosted after another victory.

Full List of Apprentice Candidates and Their Jobs

Flo Edwards – Recruitment Consultant

Florence Edwards, or Flo, has a proven track record when it comes to being a successful businesswoman.

After launching her own recruitment consultancy, she has sent a stern warning to the rest of this year’s field “not to underestimate” her. She has so far fulfilled that claim having led her team to an impressive victory in week three’s virtual escape room task.

Foluso Falade – Project Manager

Inspired by her mother who has been the proprietor of a shop in her native Manchester for 25 years, Foluso Falade proclaimed herself as the “Mary Poppins of business.”

Having started a business of her own helping young people, she is aiming to run the first Social Enterprise to win Lord Sugar’s £250,000 investment.

Having been on the winning team in all but two weeks up to this point, including once as a project manager, Foluso has impressed.

Maura Rath – Yoga Company Owner

Obsessed with swimming in the Irish Sea come wind, rain or sun, yoga company owner Maura Rath from Wexford has her business roots firmly rooted in bringing joy to people.

She has found herself on the winning team in four of the eight weeks so far, avoiding the firing line after being brought back to the boardroom once.

Paul Midha – Dental Practice Owner

A dentist by trade, Paul Midha’s practice has grown to be worth over £900,000, which he says experienced “an exceptional growth of over five times its initial value.”

Paul has yet to be called into the boardroom despite being on the losing team, and has so far carried himself well.

He aims to revolutionise the healthcare attire market as the winning candidate this year.

Phil Turner – Pie Company Owner

Rachel Woolford – Fitness Studio Owner

After starting her own business during the pandemic and persevering in the face of adversity, boutique fitness studio owner Rachel Woolford is hoping to build on her already-strong client base.

Having admitted she did all of the work herself – with everything from cleaning the studio to running the accounts – Rachel’s work ethic has been clear for all to see so far, earning her a spot near the top of the Apprentice betting odds.

Raj Chocan – Mortgage Broker

Raj Chocan has a strong history of success as a mortgage broker. Named the ‘Mortgage Broker of the Year’ in September 2023, and the Silver Award winner of ‘Best Businesswoman in Finance’, Chocan’s reputation precedes her.

As a strong frontrunner  in the Apprentice betting odds after week eight, she has led a winning team as project manager and is yet to taste defeat, which is a good omen for her ambitions of using the £250,000 investment to drive her dreams in the world of finance.

Steve Darken – Management Consultant

After enjoying success as a low-budget filmmaker in his formative years – even winning prizes at Pinewood Studios and having a film screened at the Cannes Festival – Steve Darken has since found success in consultancy.

A self-confessed “dedicated business and tech leader”, Darken is convinced the £250,000 investment would lead Lord Sugar into a multi-million opportunity.

Tre Lowe – Musician & wellness entrepreneur

The oldest candidate left on the show, Tre Lowe has already enjoyed creative success in his younger years as part of the garage band ‘Architechs.’

He has high hopes for his wellness business, and says he believes the “future of entrepreneurism will be about the personal stories, challenges, and triumphs of the founders.”
