During the days of the Festival, we asked the competitors competing in Sanremo who would win. Fedez and Masini (15 votes), Sal Da Vinci (9 votes), Serena Brancale (9 votes), Ditonellapiaga (8 votes) are the names that received the most preferences (regardless of the order of insertion in the personal rankings of the Bigs). A quartet that almost faithfully reflected the presences in the five finalists, with the only “mistake” of Serena Brancale and the failure to include Sayf and Arisa, reported by only two artists out of the 21 who participated in our game.
Spoiler: no one guessed the perfect podium, also because, to be honest, it was rather unpredictable. But first place, and even third and second have been predicted. Overall it wasn't a bad Crystal Ball Festival.
Here are all the predictions, below.
NB. Some artists have decided to give us two versions of their prediction: the realistic one and the dreamed one.

J-Ax
1. Sal Da Vinci
2. Fedez & Masini
3. Serena Brancale
First position secured. And in the end, honestly, that's what matters.

Rag dolls
1. Rag dolls
2. Serena Brancale
3. Marie Antoinette & Colombre
BONUS: Fulminacci fifth “because he cared”.
We would have appreciated almost anything. Sin!

Michele Bravi
1. Lillo
2. Lillo
3. Lillo
He didn't even try. We can only say: sooner or later…

Sal Da Vinci
1. Serena Brancale
2. Fedez & Masini
3. Toe sore
Humility always pays. Well done, Sal!

Marie Antoinette & Colombre
1. Sal Da Vinci
2. Arisa
3. Sayf
Excellent play. Two out of three names on the podium and also fourth place. Taaaac!

Chiello
“Disqualified”.
Oh well… it's not Morgan-Bugo.

Thunderbolts
1. Tommaso Paradiso
2. Toe sore
3. Sal Da Vinci
By reversing the order of the addends, the product does not change… or yes. Stupid bad luck!

Francesco Renga
1. Toe sore
2. Levant
3. Serena Brancale
4. Rag dolls
A nice optimism from Renga. And we are grateful for it.

Thomas Paradise
Dream…
1. Patty Pravo
2. Nayt
3. Tommaso Paradiso
…or am I awake?
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Lightning strikes
3. Nayt or Pitonellaplaga
So so. Maybe next time.

Dargen D'Amico
1. Sayf
2. Thirteen Peter
3. Fedez & Masini
He had sensed something, our Dargen. Well done anyway.

Raf
Dream…
1. Sayf
2. Levant
3. Chiello
…or am I awake?
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Serena Brancale
3. Toe sore
A good dose of realism, which for a long part of the week would have proved him right. But he didn't take the plot twist into account.

Leo Gassmann
1. Tommaso Paradiso
2. Fedez & Masini
3. Sayf
Yes. To be improved.

Nayt
1. Chiello
2. Thirteen Peter
3. Serena Brancale
Ouch ouch, wrong across the board. Try again, Nayt, you'll be luckier.

Levant
Dream…
1. Levant
2. Serena Brancale
3. Toe sore
…or am I awake?
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Tommaso Paradiso
3. Toe sore
A perfect third place, both in the dream and in reality, for Ditonellapiaga. Five points to Gryffindor!

LDA & AKA 7even
1. Serena Brancale
2. Sal Da Vinci
3. Fedez & Masini
The boys had discovered something, but perhaps they didn't believe it enough. A shame, especially with their Napoli.

Luchè
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Toe sore
3. Serena Brancale
Accussì, accussì. Fire, fire, fire.

Toe in the sore
1. Serena Brancale
2. Sal Da Vinci
3. Fedez & Masini
Sal is there, but in the wrong position. Promoted for intuition.

Elettra Lamborghini
Dream…
1. Elettra Lamborghini
2. Elettra Lamborghini
3. Elettra Lamborghini
… or am I awake?
1. Sal Da Vinci
2. Toe sore
3. Fedez & Masini
Good, good, and good again.

Serena Brancale
1. Sal Da Vinci
2. Ermal Meta
3. Fedez & Masini
Well done too Serena Brancale, who saw us long and hard. And she still brought home an excellent result.

Malika Ayane
Dream…
1. Toe sore
2. Arisa
3. Nayt
…or am I awake?
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Arisa
3. Sal Da Vinci
This year's competitors, it must be said, didn't do too badly. Malika Ayane's ranking also confirms this.

Ermal Meta
1. Fedez & Masini
2. Sayf
3. Sal Da Vinci
Ermal Meta guesses second place, senses Sal's arrival, and makes a mistake but not by much on Fedez & Masini. Among the best in the class.
