Probable (6)

I think it could be either:

likely

oddson

'probable' is the definition.
(I know that probable can be written as likely)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for likely that I've seen before include "Probable, expected" , "Promising, probably" , "Has a good chance of being the case" , "Ilkley (anag.)" , "In prospect" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Irish Independent, the King Feature Syndicate, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Penny Press, The Independent and The Telegraph.
