This week’s X Factor theme is classic love songs, but with just six acts left and one more to leave at the end of Saturday’s show there are bound to be tears before it’s all over.

Here’s what the remaining contestants will be singing this week:

Beverley – Without You

Niki – The Power Of Love

Hope – Hurt

Leon – You Don’t Know Me

Rhydian – Somewhere

Same Difference – Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now

It was a battle of the girls in the bottom two, as Hope and Alisha sang to save their place in the contest.

Simon and Sharon both opted to save their own acts, leaving the decision on who stayed and who went to Louis and Dannii. A tearful Dannii voted to send Alisha home. Louis agonised over his choice, saying “Alisha has so much more to give [...] do I ruin one person’s dream of five people’s? [...] I’m damned if I do and damned if I don’t!”
After much deliberation Louis finally decided to send Alisha home, leaving Sharon with no acts.

Earlier there was some controversy when sibling duo Same Difference were booed by the studio audience after being told they were the first act through to the next week.

Saturday night is disco night on the X Factor, and here’s what the remaining contestants will be singing:

Alisha – Young Hearts Run Free
Beverley – I’m Every Woman
Hope – Gimme Gimme Gimme (A man after midnight)
Leon – Relight my Fire
Niki – Hot Stuff
Rhydian – Go West
Same Difference – Feels like I’m in Love
