According to bookmakers Ladbrokes<\/a>, Sean Fitzgerald and Lola Deal are firm favourites to triumph in this summer’s season of Love Island.<\/a><\/p>\n

The pair coupled up on day one and are clearly going quite strong and the betting reflects the same.<\/p>\n

The Irish primary school teacher and GAA <\/a>player for Galway is first in the lead at 9\/4 to end up Top Male at the end of the season, with his closest competition being Aidan Murphy at 6\/1.<\/p>\n

Whilst Lola Deal remains the favourite to be the Top Female at 3\/1 ahead of Jasmine Muller at 5\/1.<\/p>\n

The pair are going from strength to strength after a slight wobble in Thursday night\u2019s episode seeing the two come closer after a disagreement over money.<\/p>\n

Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said: “Fitzy and Lola seem to be unstoppable in the Love Island villa. The pair are locked off and their heads can\u2019t be turned.<\/p>\n

“If the betting is to be believed the couple will see it through the summer all the way to the finishing line.”<\/p>\n
