The latest betting odds for the Wimbledon constituency are showing Stephen Hammond (pictured top) as being the favourite to be the next MP for the seat.

According to the Oddschecker site all the major bookmakers have the Conservatives as odds-on favourite.

At time of writing, betfair have Stephen Hammond as 8/15 on favourite and are quoting Lib Dem Paul Kohler as second favourite at 13/8, with Labour’s Jackie Schneider trailing at 10/1 against, also on betfair.

The best odds for the Lib Dems are with Coral at 7/4, while Coral puts the Conservatives at 2/5 on.

Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: "As the general election fast approaches and various poll results begin to paint a picture of the likely outcome on December 12, the betting markets can be a valuable resource.

"Our projections currently have the Conservative party holding 361 seats following the election, comfortably enough for a Tory majority. The money has pointed to a Tory landslide for a long time and as punters now focus on the specific constituencies, the story remains the same."

According to Oddschecker, the Conservative Party is currently on odds of 2/5 to gain an overall majority. After a Conservative win, the most likely outcome is no overall majority, which is currently on odds of 12/5. The odds of a Labour majority are much lower, at 33/1.
