Radiohead currently find themselves among the acts tipped to be the Saturday night headliner at this year's Glastonbury, due to what could be a hidden clue in the festival's poster. 

Last week, Glasto revealed more than 80 of the main acts booked to play this year - all bar the hotly-anticipated Saturday night headliner. 

Now, many believe that it could be Radiohead, due to a striking resemblence between the line-up poster and artwork found in the booklet of Radiohead's Kid A album, as well as a promo poster for their latest album, The King Of Limbs. See them all below. 

It is worth noting that the Radiohead art was designed by Stanley Donwood - who has also designed artwork and merchandise for Glastonbury throughout the years, so it could all just be a happy coincidence. Maybe he just likes the red, white and black colour scheme and font? Maybe it's a hidden clue? Who knows? Only time will tell.

Emily Eavis has stated that the Saturday headliner has been booked but can not yet be revealed due to 'contractual reasons', while Radiohead guitarist Johnny Greenwood has confirmed that the band would be reconvening this summer to plan their future. 

Glastonbury festival takes place at Worthy Farm in Somerset from Wednesday 25 to Sunday 29 June, 2014. 

The resale dates of any reserved tickets for Glastonbury Festival that have either been cancelled, refunded or not paid for will go into resales on two separate days - with the resale for ticket and coach packages taking place from 7pm on Thursday 24 April, before general admission tickets go back on sale from 9am on Sunday 27 April.
