Labor was expected to slide out in the betting markets while Mr Albanese spent the week in isolation after testing positive for COVID-19 at the end of the second week on the campaign trail.
Across the states and territories, Labor remains the favourite to win more seats than the Coalition with leads in all jurisdictions except Western Australia and Queensland. Labor is the favourite in both Northern Territory seats, in Tasmania the Opposition is favoured in four seats while an independent holds one, in South Australia Labor is shorter priced in six seats the Coalition is in three while the Centre Alliance is in one seat.
