According to ABC, all 13 couples will be safe on premiere week. Although fans will be voting for the first time during Monday night’s premiere, no couples will be eliminated on Week 1. Next week, eliminations begin on the second nights of the two-night show that airs Monday, September 19 and Tuesday, September 20.
This season’s cast was introduced on Good Morning America late last month, and odds makers are already predicting which couples will secure a spot in the DWTS Season finale. Sports Bovada predicts that Laurie Hernandez and Valentin Chmerkovskiy will be crowned the winners, with Amber Rose and Maksim Chmerkovskiy will take second place, and Vanilla Ice (Robert Van Winkle) and Witney Carson will come in third.
Time will tell if Sports Bovada ‘s predictions turn out to be correct, but, along with the couples’ performances and judges’ scores, your votes will play a major part in the outcome of this season.
