After weeks of auditions, the six-chair challenge, judges' houses and the live shows, the 2018 series of The X Factor will come to an end this weekend, with the final taking place on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd December.

With Simon Cowell's act Scarlett Lee set to battle it out with Louis Tomlinson's boys, Dalton Harris and Anthony Russell, music mogul Simon has revealed who he thinks will be crowned the 15th winner of the popular talent show.

Speaking to Lizzy Cundy on This Morning ahead of the big finale, surprisingly Simon revealed he thinks Dalton Harris will win the show and not his own act Scarlett Lee.

He said, "I would say everyone's got to beat Dalton Harris at this point. It probably will - and it should - come down to what happens on the night. They're all got great songs so it'll be exciting."
