I really do hope so!

Sad, sad, individual. Spending that much on a reality tv show? I'll stick to my five free votes, thanks.

Pundits are going with voting history and think that the mainly female voting audience will go for the 'pretty boy' more than the foreign, slightly kookie girl. But she clearly walks all over him performance wise.

I don't think it's that strange - It's Oh So Quiet should work well in Wembley Arena, with the staging and choreography. It'll be interesting to see if they stick with the same staging and choreo that they used for the original performance, or if they're going with something new.

This is the first time in a while that it's so difficult to call who will win going into the final night. I wouldn't be surprised whichever way it went tonight.

Saara has to win this to show that The show's manipulation can be beat. Saara was a huge outsider a few weeks ago and now she's on course to win. To be honest I would prefer if she didn't win as she would have freedom to decide who she wanted to be signed to.

I'm sure that she will be signed.

I think the problem is people like me really.

For instance, I'll vote for Saara but there's zero chance of buying her music. There's lots of people out there that are interested in the singing but not necessarily the music that follows. Just by chance, she might bring out something completely out of the blue that's super interesting, but normally I'd never buy an X Factor alumni single.

The only tracks I've invested in have been Bleeding Love (because it's an absolute tune) and Heart Skips a Beat (but I never bought that, just enjoy hearing it). I just wouldn't buy a track by an artist just to support them. I'd only buy it if I loved the track. I just treat X Factor winners like every other artist and purchase their track if I find it appealing.

A good voice doesn't help if what you release isn't particularly innovative. But I still wish her and Matt the best and I do hope they find their audiences and get a career out of this. They both seem lovely people.

I've never purchased the winners single before but I will if Saara wins. She's a special combination of superb vocals, great personality and a fabulous charismatic performer. You can feel it in her music whatever she sings. She has a rare ability to make me love songs I previously disliked.

All the bookies still have Matt as the favourite but Saara's odds haven't drifted too far which it looked like they might last night. In fact her odds have shortened with Betfred and Ladbrokes.

It's going to be the closest final ever. Both clearly have a sizeable fan base.

Come on Saara fans lets do this for our girl. Vote! Vote! Vote!

But his singing and performance skills are not as good as Saara's, so why vote for him

Coz maybe they think he's better than Saara and they can vote who they want? I'm team Saara but some of how team Saara acts makes me think I'm on the wrong team. At least team Matt is nice and not bitchy.
