The countdown to The Traitors grand finale is on, with only three episodes left until we see who can win the ultimate game of deception. Strap in, traitors fans, we’ve got a lot to cover.
With the faithfuls getting closer and closer to catching the current traitors, Minah and Charlotte, it seems that we could be in for a faithful win this year, according to UK betting apps…
Plus, superfans believe they know which players will end up in this Friday’s finale – and it’s not who you expect.
So, which players are going to make it to the end without crumbling? Who’s going to be murdered before breakfast? And who’s going to be banished from the castle forever before making it to the dramatic grand finale? The odds are in…
Will a faithful or traitor win Series 3 of The Traitors?
Truth will prevail! Faithfuls set to win series 3 of The Traitors…
According to UK betting sites based on who’s the favourite to win series 3 of The Traitors, it seems that we’re in for a faithful triumph, with an odds of 4/6.
Now, let’s take a look at the player run-down to see who’s going to take the crown…
Who is most likely to win Series 3 The Traitors?
Ex-diplomat favourite to win
Despite being a late entrance, it seems that the ex-diplomat, Alexander, is on his way to victory, with an odds of 4/5.
Not only has he shown impressive detective skills and handled himself well at the round table, but he’s also won the hearts of the nation (not that’s going to help him win)…

But, the question remains, will he win as a faithful or traitor? Whilst some fans think he will stay faithful all the way, there’s a theory beginning to circulate online that Charlotte will soon recruit him and he will help her win the ultimate prize.
Charlotte to throw Minah under the bus
From the beginning of the series, viewers have wondered why faithful, Charlotte, aged 33, has been putting on a fake Welsh accent for no apparent reason – until now.
Despite having lived in London her whole life, Charlotte decided to pretend she is from Abergavenny, in Monmouthshire, in order to deceive her fellow players and maximise her chances of survival.
Charlotte claims that the Welsh accent will help her win the game: “I’ve been putting on a Welsh accent because my mum’s from Wales, it’s one of the most trustworthy accents.”

But now, it seems that Charlotte’s long game could be all worth it, since she’s been recruited as a Traitor by the cunning Minah.
With enough trust from the other faithfuls left in the game, and cracks beginning to show for Minah, it seems that Charlotte has a good shot of winning – either with or without Minah’s help.
Charlotte’s odds to win are sitting at 2/1.
Not looking likely for OG traitor, Minah
Despite playing a whopper of a game – and having a lot of backing from the nation, it looks like Minah’s time as a traitor, and indeed, in the castle, is quickly running out… 4/1.
Minah is one of the best traitors we’ve had – calm, collected, likeable, deflects onto the right people and delivers Oscar winning performances.. QUEEN! #TheTraitors pic.twitter.com/63TFB3B2h0

Even though she’s managed to dodge much suspicion so far in the game, as the group gets smaller, the suspicions get larger. Fans have noticed that Minah’s name has begun to crop up more and more in the last couple of episodes, even by her “sister,” Charlotte.
Fans also believe that even if Minah is jammy enough to make it to the finale, she’ll be betrayed by Charlotte in one final money-stealing traitor move. In Friday’s episode, we saw Charlotte already beginning to cover her back and plant seeds about Minah being a traitor, so it wouldn’t be a shock if she were to end the “sisterhood” once and for all, and double-cross Minah.
But hey, it takes a traitor to know one, so maybe Minah is already thinking two steps ahead…
Traitor-catcher Jake to be murdered next
With the last episode leaving us on yet another cliffhanger, we are yet to find out who is next to be murdered.
The traitors shortlisted Jake, Joe and Frankie to be in the firing line. However, all signs point to Jake, since they said it’ll be a “big character” in the group, who is “a good Traitor catcher” – and since Jake predicted that Linda was a traitor from the beginner, fans are certain that it’ll be Jake not showing up at the breakfast table on Wednesday’s episode.
With this in mind, it’s clear to see why Jake is at the bottom of the bookies’ leaderboard at 10/1.
The next episode of The Traitors will be aired on BBC One on Wednesday 22nd January, where the results of the latest murder will be revealed. The series finale will air on Friday 24th January 2025.
