The rules of the game on the fourth instalment of 'The Traitors' necessitate that one must forge the right alliances to make it till the very end. Indeed, the shifting dynamics of the treacherous game often test friendships and enmities alike, to the extent that nothing is ever set in stone. While the ongoing Season 4 moves forward towards its impending finale on February 26, it is worthwhile to indulge in speculation about the potential winner, and it looks like a former winner has given his prediction.

To bring you up to speed, AZ Central rightly reports that five Faithfuls have so far been murdered on the Peacock show. Monét X Change, Ian Terry, Yamil 'Yam Yam' Arocho, Rob Cesterino, and Carole Stanbury have been eliminated from the contest. In a similar vein, four other Faithfuls have been banished from the Scottish castle. These include Michael Rapaport, Ron Funches, Tiffany Mitchel, and Porsha Williams. With the departure of Lisa Rinna and Candice Dillard Bassett in the latest episodes, the group of Traitors has been reduced to just Rausch.  

According to an E! News report, 'Dancing With The Stars' alum Dylan Efron had previously revealed his prediction for the winner. Speaking from the red carpet at the 2026 edition of the Golden Globes back in January, Efron had asserted Rausch might just make it to the top spot on the show. "I feel like Traitors are gonna win, I think right now Rob has his game just locked up." Efron has some credibility in making an educated guess since he himself was the winner of the reality television show's third season alongside Dolores Catania, Ivar Mountbatten, and Gabby Windey. 

Speaking about the strategy adopted by Rausch in the ongoing season, Efron further added, "It's a UK Season 2 strategy. He's got Maura under his wing. I think he's gonna go the whole way." Interestingly enough, Dylan's own victory on 'The Traitors' was similarly predicted by his brother and 'High School Musical' star Zac Efron, who had remarked in a 2024 interview, "I think Dylan's going to win, I hope he does, because he's so good at games. He always has been since we were kids. He's like the game master."

As reflected by The Reality Tea, Rausch has been steadily gathering momentum throughout the previously aired episodes of the show. Not only has he been able to fly under the radar and avoid suspicion from the Faithfuls regarding his identity as a Traitor, but also been keen to avoid close association with Dillard Bassett. While his status as the fourth season's winner remains purely speculative as of now, it remains to be seen whether he will last long enough. 'The Traitors' Season 4 is exclusively available on Peacock.
