Any Dream Will Do judge John Barrowman has tipped Craig Chalmers and Keith Jack as contenders to win the show.
The Torchwood actor admitted that he had been surprised by the high quality of performances from the contest's hopefuls, but warned that there is still work to be done as no contestant yet has the "showbiz factor".
"I think the standard of talent is excellent, particularly Craig and Keith, who are both good Scottish boys. All the other boys in general are all of a very good standard and high quality," Barrowman told the Daily Record.
"I always remain impartial but I'm thrilled that two Scottish boys are getting close to the final. But it's Scotland, you know what I mean. They're the two cans of Irn Bru up on stage.
"I can see a leading man in some of them. I can see careers in some of them, but none has gone, wow. They don't have that showbiz factor yet."
