Away from the sporting stars the next favourites to take place are ex-Emmerdale star Chelsea Halfpenny, Coach Trip presenter Brendan Sheerin, and BBC presenter Steph McGovern.
OddsMonkey spokesman Peter Watton commented: “The build-up for Strictly 2018 has already begun and the interest is strong on Lizzie Yarnold, the Golden Girl of Britain’s Winter Olympic squad and at 3/1 she is firmly leading this race too.
“Another Gold medal hero in Jess Ennis-Hill is highly fancied at 6/1 with Emmerdale star Chelsea Halfpenny getting a lot of traction.
