Amanda Holden's Golden Buzzer act, The Blackouts, who stormed the semi-final vote earlier this week, are hot on their heels at 13/8.
Meanwhile, Harry Moulding is sitting at 7/1 to win when the live final kicks off tonight, Saturday May 31, at 7pm on ITV.
Olly Pearson, who won a Golden Buzzer early in the series, is trailing just behind at 8/1.
A pack of other acts are battling it out at longer odds – including Ping Pong Pang and Stacey Leadbeatter at 12/1, and Binita Chetry as an outsider at 20/1.
Bringing up the rear are Joseph Charm and Vinnie McKee, both longshots at 33/1, while Jasmine Rice is languishing at 40/1.
William Hill spokesperson Lee Phelps said: 'Hear Our Voice have struck a real chord with the public and are now the ones to beat in Saturday night's final.
"Their odds have shortened to 6/4 after their powerful semi-final performance.
'The Blackouts, who've been fan favourites from the start, are still strong contenders at 13/8 – but momentum seems to be shifting towards the choir, whose emotional story has really resonated with the nation.'
However, KSI has tipped Stacey Leadbeatter to win the show.

Speaking to host Andi Peters, he said: "Stacey (Leadbeatter) honestly, I hope she wins.
"Like, I love Stacey. And her story's phenomenal.
"Because, you know, working at a chicken shop and then being able to come through in front of an audience like that and sing her heart out.
"I was just like mind blown. I was like, she needs to win this."
Stacey Leadbeatter wowed the judges and audience with her audition, singing Leona Lewis' version of Snow Patrol's Run.
She had only performed once in public before her BGT appearance and had to retrain her voice due to a speech impediment.
She said: "It is extremely hard, I have a video of me singing from four or five years ago and you couldn't actually understand properly what I was singing due to the severity of speech impediments.
"So during lockdown I used to sit through like adult speech therapy sessions on YouTube and then I'd introduce it into my singing.
"If I don't do certain exercises for say a couple of weeks at a time, I will start to revert back to how I was."
