Adele, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay Bookies Favourites To Win At BRIT Awards

Adele, Ed Sheeran and Coldplay have been named as the bookies favourites to win big at tonight's BRIT Awards.

Before William Hill bookies closed betting on Friday evening, Adele was the clear favourite with William Hill, at 1/10 to win Best British Album for '21'.

Coldplay were at 9/1 and Florence and the Machine at 10/1.

Adele is also favourite to pick up Best Female Solo Artist at 1/5, with Jessie J a close second at 9/2 to scoop the award.

'We are almost certain that Adele will scoop a Brit or two, but despite the fact that Someone Like You has been number one just about everywhere in the world, One Direction's diehard fans look like they may well have secured best single for their boys,' said Hill's spokesman Joe Crilly.

The BRIT Awards will also feature performances on the night from Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Rihanna and Adele.

The Arctic Monkeys, Chase & Status, Coldplay, Elbow and Kasabian are all up for Best British Group.

Ed Sheeran, James Blake, James Morrison, Noel Gallagher, and Professor Green are all up for Best British Male.

The BRIT Awards 2012 will take place February 21 at London's O2 Arena.
