Who will win an Oscar in 2020?
According to Ladbrokes, 1917 is the most likely to win Best Picture with 4/7 odds, followed by South Korean movie Parasite at 7/2.
Following these are Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, sitting at 8/1, while Joker is at 12/1, having not won an award in the film category yet.
In the leading actor categories, Renee Zellweger is the most likely woman to take home the Best Actress award, having swept most awards ceremonies so far.

She won the Golden Globe, BAFTA and Screen Actors’ Guild award for her portrayal of Judy Garland, in the movie Judy, and has 1/20 odds to complete her collection.
Similarly, if the previous awards ceremonies are anything to go by, this award is in the bag for Joaquin Phoenix.
He is 1/50 to take home the award, having followed Renee Zellweger in doing a clean sweep of the ceremonies.
Meanwhile, in the Best Director category, the men are reigning supreme with no women among the nominees.

Todd Phillips, who is also nominated for Joker, is even further down the list, looking the least likely to take home the award with 100/1 odds.
