Israel's entry for the Eurovision 2021 pop song competition will be chosen on Jan. 25 during a special broadcast on Kan 11 News hosted by Lucy Ayoub.

The special program will feature Israel's Eurovision representative, Eden Alene – whose scheduled appearance in 2020 was cancelled when the event was axed due to coronavirus – singing the three final contenders: "La La Love," "Set Me Free," and "O La La."

The winner will represent Israel at this year's Eurovision event, scheduled to take place in the Netherlands, pandemic permitting.

However, it appears that the Europeans are less than enthused about the songs, which have already been made public. After they were unveiled, bookmakers were putting Israel in next-to-last place to win the competition.
