Odds-on favourite to be eliminated from the BBC dance competition, the comedian is expected to leave the show with odds of just 4/5.
Susan, 43, could be up against Mollie King and her professional partner AJ Pritchard who are next in line to be send home, with odds of 2/1.
X Factor winner Alexandra Burke is in the lead as front runner to win the entire show at 9/4, but could be up against Debbie McGee if she manages to bounce back from last week's underwhelming Spice Girls themed performance.
Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes said: "It's safe to say Susan won't be laughing at our odds, but unfortunately for her the writing's on the wall this weekend."

Susan will dance a "statistically mid-risk" American Smooth tonight as fellow bookmaker Betway also selected her as favourite to be eliminated.
Betway’s Alan Alger said: "A combination of our research and rumours of injury concerns has sent Debbie McGee’s odds of being eliminated this weekend tumbling to 16/1 from 50/1.
"Whilst McGee is still very much an outsider for the boot at 16/1, she’s by no means in the clear.

He added: "The American Smooth has a history of leading dancers to the Strictly exit and Calman is the red-hot even-money favourite to go this weekend."
Strictly Come Dancing continues tonight on BBC One at 6.50pm.
