LOVE Island fans on Twitter have backed one couple to win in Monday’s final after a shock dumping twist last night.
It comes as Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti were voted the least compatible couple by their fellow Love Islanders as the finale of the ITV reality show looms.
Love Island has aired the couples’s final dates but one pair will go home on Sunday night

The race to find the winners of this year’s show got personal on Friday as the contestants separated into their couples to discuss the state of the other relationships – while dramatic music played.
It comes just days before the grand final on August 1 where one of the remaining five couples will be crowned the winners of Love Island 2022 and take home the £50,000 prize.
Ekin-Su and Davide are joined by Gemma Owen and Luca Bish, Tasha Ghouri and Andrew Le Page, Indiyah Pollack and Dami Hope, and Paige Thorne and Adam Collard as the last couples standing, after nearly eight weeks of the ITV dating show.
As they deliberated on who to choose, Ekin-Su told Davide: “Let’s be real, this is not friend island OK.”
But the couple received four votes for least compatible couple, ahead of a further viewer vote, meaning they are at risk from being dumped from the island ahead of the final.
Despite their fellow Islanders having little faith in them, viewers at home are backing them all the way.
“Ekin and Davide for the win” one tweeted.
Another echoed: “gonna love when ekin n davide win”
And someone else said: “Ekin and Davide are definitely going to win but I still want Ekin to steal the money one last show please.”
Gemma and Luca received three votes, Paige and Adam received two and Tasha and Andrew received one, meaning they are also at risk of losing out.
Indiyah and Dami were the only couple to not receive votes, meaning they are safe and will participate in the final.
Luca and Gemma also enjoyed their final date in a private courtyard last night where they were serenaded by a six-piece ensemble.
Sitting at a table set up above a pool of water, Gemma opened up about their relationship, saying: “We wind each other up. But we both love it.
“You know I find it hard being lovey-dovey, but I feel like I’m quite more lovey-dovey with you than anyone really before. I always find myself gravitating towards you. I always want to be near you and in your company.”
The final of Love Island airs on ITV2 and ITV Hub at 9pm on Monday August 1.
