Brendan Rodgers has been backed into 1/2 to be the first Premier League manager to leave
Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is now 1/2 to be the first Premier League manager to leave his role.
This comes after Leicester's 2-1 loss to Southampton at the weekend which caused bookmakers to make him favourite to leave.
Ladbrokes have him as favourite to go with Frank Lampard 11/2 second favourite in the betting market.
| First Premier League Manager to leave | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Brendan Rodgers
|
1/2 | 66.7% |
| Frank Lampard | 11/2 | 15.4% |
| Steven Gerrard
|
6/1 | 14.3% |
| Ralph Hasenhüttl
|
7/1 | 12.5% |
| Erik ten Hag | 8/1 | 11.1% |
According to the betting odds, Rodgers now has a 66% chance of being the first manager to leave his role this season.
Erik ten Hag was the biggest market mover last week with his odds going from 33/1 down to just 13/2 after his side lost to Brentford.
Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard are just behind in the betting odds
Former England midfield partnership Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard are just behind Rodgers in the betting market.
Lampard's Everton side have had a tricky start to the season and Saturday's home draw against Nottingham Forest added to that.
Everton were losing but came back to get a point and a loss would have seen the pressure heap further on Lampard.
Gerrard's Villa lost to Crystal Palace at the weekend and are 13th in the league on 3 points.
Ralph Hasenhüttl now out to 7/1 from 2/1 favourite
After Southampton's impressive win away to Leicester at the weekend, Ralph Hasenhüttl is now out to 7/1 to be the first manager to leave.
The Saints manager had been backed into 2/1 favourite and has always been under pressure in that managerial role.
Now though Hasenhüttl seems to be safe as manager of Southampton and will be looking forward to welcoming Man United to St Mary's at the weekend.
