The season finale of The Bachelor wont air for weeks yet, but Ellen DeGeneres said she already knows who the ABC reality series final contestants will be.

The host shared her predictions with the star of The Bachelor directly when Colton Underwood , a former NFL practice-squad player, appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Friday.

I dont know how youre going to narrow it down, she said, after challenging Underwood to a word association game while holding photos of Season 23 contestants . But I think the final two are going to be Cassie and Caelynn. Thats my prediction, that youre going to have these two.

Given that this seasons episodes of The Bachelor have all been taped, Underwood knows the outcome but didnt divulge much in his chat with DeGeneres other than to say hes definitely the happiest Ive ever been in my life.

I wouldnt have gone on the show if I didnt think it was going to be good and I wasnt going to be hopeful in it, he said. So yeah, Im very happy right now.
