2024 Ukraine election predictions are at their earliest stage but can already show the country’s possible political course. Both the former and the sitting President of Ukraine are the most likely to lead the odds.  However, this time the winner of the presidential race is less obvious than in 2019.

Ukraine has not been living its golden era since 2014. It still feels the results of revolution, the loss of Crimea, the war with Russia and a problematic economy. All these factors require a strong head of the country. Despite the choice of Volodymyr Zelensky seems not too bad, Ukrainians doubt that he saves his post in five years.

The next planned election of the President of Ukraine will take place in 2024. Let’s discover, who can be the favorite in five years, according to the political betting predictions by online gambling sites in Ukraine.

Ukrainians may want Poroshenko back to the president’s chair

The ex-president Petro Poroshenko will have the highest chance to win the 2024 election. He has 4.00 odds on the victory, following online sportsbook news in Ukraine. Petro Poroshenko remained Ukraine’s leader from 2014 to 2019. He became the head of the country just after the revolution and starting a war with Russia.

Poroshenko led his efforts against the Eastern country. They were successful because he achieved sanctions against Russia. However, not everyone liked his efforts to join the EU and keep distance with Russia. During the last election, Poroshenko finished far behind Volodymyr Zelensky. However, bookmakers are sure that he can still come back if Zelensky will disappoint Ukrainians. 

Zelensky’s chance to win the next election will be still high

The current President of Ukraine will probably keep his post after the 2024 election. Betting odds on Volodymyr Zelensky’s second term are second-highest at 1xBet Sportsbook – 5.00. The current situation in Ukraine seems good for Zelensky. He received an absolute victory over Poroshenko during the 2019 election. The majority’s support, however, still let some Ukrainians criticize Zelensky’s political course.

Tymoshenko will join the next election for the 3rd time

Yulia Tymoshenko took part in the election several times. In 2010, she lost to Viktor Yanukovych in the 2nd tour. Right after, she went to jail. After the 2014 revolution, the Supreme Court of Ukraine closed all her cases. During the upcoming election, Tymoshenko finished at the 2nd place after Poroshenko. In 2019, she participated in the election again. This time Tymoshenko did not pass to the next tour, having lost to both Zelensky and Poroshenko.

By 2024 Ukraine election predictions, the only female Prime Minister of Ukraine won’t leave attempts to win the presidential race. Tymoshenko has 7.00 betting odds on online sportsbooks in Ukraine.
