If the bookmakers鈥� predictions are accurate, the outcome of the latest series of The Apprentice is a foregone conclusion.
MyBettingSites.co.uk says 28-year-old Karishma Vijay has a 75 per cent chance of being crowned The Apprentice champion.
Her odds of 1/3 compare with outsider Pascha Myhill鈥檚 odds of 3/1, meaning the bookies think she has only a 25 per cent chance of winning.
Both candidates are vying to win Lord Sugar鈥檚 拢250,000 investment and mentorship.

A spokesperson for MyBettingSites.co.uk said: 鈥淜arishma has stood out from the very beginning, landing a bargain deal in the opening episode and continuing to perform at a high level while also becoming the only contestant of series 20 to win twice as project manager of a task.
鈥淪he is now looking for investment to scale her skincare business, which fits well with Alan Sugar鈥檚 track record of backing similar ventures, including series 7 contestant Susie Ma and her company Tropic Skincare, one of the UK鈥檚 fastest-growing brands.
鈥淎s a result, Karishma is the clear favourite to win The Apprentice with odds of 1/3. Even though Pascha has outperformed initial expectations and managed to reach the final two, she is still expected to fall just short of securing investment her odds of winning are 3/1.鈥�
Karishma Vijay is the founder of Twickenham-based beauty brand Kishkin, which describes itself as a 鈥榮kincare miracle鈥�.
She went into the show admitting she didn鈥檛 even watch The Apprentice and has amassed more than 850,000 followers on Instagram and TikTok.
At 22, Pascha Myhill is the youngest contestant on the show and is seeking investment for a recruitment company within private healthcare. She recently launched an exclusive subscription service for behind-the-scenes content.
