X Factor: Who will be first out?

After weeks of auditions, boot camp and the judges' homes, The X Factor finally reaches the stage we love this week - the live shows. 

And after making it through each gruelling stage of the contest so far, one of the final 12 acts will find themselves out on their ear at the end of the Sunday night results programme.

So, who will be first to go? Well, Louis Walsh has made no secret of the fact he thinks his acts don't stand a chance of winning this year so perhaps the question should be 'which of Louis's groups will be the first to go?' 

Out of the past five series, three of the acts eliminated first have been groups and we have a feeling that this year won't be any different.

Kandy Rain are our tip to be first out. The girls will need a very good song choice backed with a great performance to save themselves from the bottom two.

We think Cheryl could also find one of her acts in the bottom two this week. 

So, whose performance are we looking forward to most? well, although we are not fans of John & Edward, we can't wait to see what those two will sing and what Simon will have to say about it.

Also, where is Danyl possibly going to go from his OTT peformances during the auditions? We are expecting pyrotechnics and a full dance troupe during his number.

But, as previous years have shown, the live shows can be unpredictable and favourites can change on a weekly basis depending on how they perform on the night.

Who do you think will be voted out this weekend? Which act are you most looking forward to? Let us know what you think...The X Factor is on ITV1 on Saturday and Sunday evening at 8.00pm.
