The North Korean dictator is fancied at 4/6 to take the prize jointly with his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in.
Donald Trump is second favourite at 10/1 by bookies Ladbrokes.
The two leaders are in Singapore for a showdown summit to solve the ongoing crisis over Pyongyang's nuke programme, which has led to fears of a major world war.
The US President has sounded a positive note ahead of the crisis talks with Kim.
Earlier he tweeted: "Great to be in Singapore, excitement in the air!"
Kim was also pictured in a candid selfie smiling with politicians on a night out in Singapore.
US basketball star Dennis Rodman arrived in Singapore late on Monday for the summit, saying he was "excited to be part of it," although there is no indication yet he will be involved in the talks.
Speaking to reporters, the former NBA champion said: "It should go fairly well, but people should not expect so much for the first time.
"The doors are opening."
Trump met with Singapore's Prime Minister Lee today, saying afterward: "We've got a very interesting meeting tomorrow, and I just think it's going to work out very nicely".
Other figures in the running for the prestigious peace prize include the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) at 10/1, Catalan politician Carles Puidgemont at 12/1, Angela Merkel at 16/1 and Pope Francis, also at 16/1.
It's been revealed Kim never travels anywhere without his own personal toilet, but the reason he does it is truly bizarre.
The Nobel became a gag gift in 2009.
Who gives a crap what those frauds think about anything?
For me that was just when it confirmed what I already believed, and I started believing it when Arafat got the award. It’s become nothing but a political statement. A highly biased one.
Well, that should seal the deal. An emissary from Uranus is always good for negotiations.
Trump could give a chit.
Yes it is worse than a joke.
aren’t these the same bookies who favored Clinton to win in 2016?
If it’s offered to Trump, I hope he turns them down. I really don’t think they’ll ever give him one, especially after Obozo was given one for absolutely having done nothing. It’s a totally worthless prize
Exactly what I was going to say. DJT would be insulted and embarrassed to win that thing. Give him something that means something!
The nobel peace prize has been given to such jokes that it’s meaningless.
Nevertheless, we should send Kanye to steal the microphone and tell them whose really responsible for peace.
A dictator with labor camps....smh
Let’s poll the hundreds of thousands of political prisoners in the NORKs gulag system about this.
Awarding it to Kim Jong-un would not be a blow to President Trump, it would be another blow to the so-called prize itself.
aren’t these the same bookies who favored Clinton to win in 2016?
Gambling is illegal at Bushwood sir,
The smart money won't be on Trump to win. After they gave it to Obozo the award is a total joke.
Who didn’t see this coming. Well, Neville Chamberlain never got the peace prize either after meeting with Hitler and signing the Munich Agreement.
“Give that man/little lady a cheroot!”
Gag gift ... perfect!
KYPD
Take the Nobel, give me the hotel and MacDonald franchises. Oh, and also the golf course design. You bitchez. lol
