Sheffield United manager Paul Heckingbottom is the early favourite to be first manager to leave this season
Betting is already available for who the first Premier League manager to leave will be for the new season and it's Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom who is the early favourite.
UK Betting Sites put Heckingbottom as the favourite as the Blades get stuck into pre-season training this week and the betting market has him at 6/1 to leave his role.
Sheffield United will be looking to stay up in the Premier League this season but the latest odds have them at 8/11 to go straight back down to the Championship at the end of the campaign.
The betting market has Heckingbottom at 5/1 to be the first manager to go ahead of Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui who is just behind in the betting at 6/1.
| Next Premier League Manager to Leave | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Paul Heckingbottom | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Julen Lopetegui | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Steve Cooper | 7/1 | 12.5% |
| Andoni Iraola | 9/1 | 10.0% |
| David Moyes | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui is second favourite in the betting market
Julen Lopetegui committed to stay at Wolves after talking with the board around reassurances about the club's strategy going into the new season.
Reports earlier in June declared that Lopetegui would leave his role as Wolves manager before the season even began due to their financial struggles but that looks like changing.
The Guardian say that Lopetegui has accepted that big signings are unlikely this summer and some big name players will need to be sold and Ruben Neves and Nathan Collins have already gone.
Next Manager To Be Sacked Betting Odds
Luton Town are the favourites to be relegated from the Premier League this season
Luton Town are the big favourites to be relegated from the Premier League this season with their odds extremely short at 4/11 to go down to the Championship once again.
Luton are one of the shortest priced favourites for relegation that we've seen in recent seasons and it'll take a big campaign for them to stay up.
Sheffield United are also odds-on to be relegated with their odds putting them at 8/11 to be relegated back down to the Championship.
| Premier League Relegation 23/24 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Luton Town | 4/11 | 73.3% |
| Sheffield United | 8/11 | 57.9% |
| Bournemouth | 2/1 | 33.3% |
| Nottingham Forest | 9/4 | 30.8% |
| Burnley | 5/2 | 28.6% |
| Everton | 11/4 | 26.7% |
