The 88th Academy Awards will take place on February 28, and all bets are on.

Gold Derby has compiled a list of expert predictions on who the night’s big winners will be, and as the awards ceremony approaches, the final predictions are rolling in.

“Spotlight” was earlier projected to win best picture, but “The Revenant” has overtaken the film in bets since winning the BAFTA for best film and the Golden Globe for best drama. Its star, Leonardo DiCaprio, is set to win his first Oscar.

The race for best director is also close. Since winning the Golden Globe and BAFTA for best director, “The Revenant’s” director Alejandro G. Iñárritu has passed “Mad Max’s” George Miller.
