‘The Bachelor’ spoilers: Where JoJo Fletcher, Caila Quinn, Amanda Stanton may stand with Ben Higgins

Tonight, the hometown dates episode of “The Bachelor” is set to air on ABC, and of course there will be some drama that comes along with that. There are four women remaining, and each one of them is going to have their own unique experience with Ben Higgins with their friends and family.

Now that we’ve said all of this, it is pretty clear that there is some sort of present hierarchy with the women. That’s what we are here to identify in this article, which is probably the closest thing that we’ve done to actual contestant rankings all season long.

4. Amanda Stanton – What she has going for her is kindness, love, and a positive energy that many of the other women did not have this season. With that being said, has her relationship with Ben developed quickly enough? She is one of the last remaining women to get a lot of alone time with Ben, and he has to figure out if he is ready to be an instant father.

3. Caila Quinn – If there was better chemistry between her and Ben, we’d probably rank her #2 just because there doesn’t seem to be as much drama here as the hometown date between Ben and JoJo coming up in the episode. We just don’t think there’s enough substance here, as nice as Caila seems to be.

2. JoJo Fletcher – There’s a ton of passion here, and what we would consider to be the best emotional connection of the entire season. Of course, the problem here is that if Ben gets into some arguments with her brother, is there any hope of her lasting? It could weigh in his head.

1. Lauren Bushnell – She has been a frontrunner for a long time, and while there will probably be the typical hometown-date concerns, we don’t see there being anything here that could keep the two from losing momentum during hometown dates. This, plus a good physical connection, gets them in good standing.
