Steve Cooper now the 6/4 favourite to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked this season
Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper is now the favourite with UK Betting Sites to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked following his side's 1-1 draw at home to Wolves on Saturday.
Reports in The Telegraph on Friday evening suggested that Cooper is fighting for his future as Forest manager with his position in the role 'increasingly unstable'.
Now the latest betting odds from BetVictor have Cooper as the 6/4 favourite to lose his role next following the double dismissal of Brendan Rodgers and Graham Potter on Sunday.
Rodgers was in and around the favourites in the betting market and those odds came true on Sunday afternoon as he left Leicester mutually but it's now Cooper who is the favourite.
| Next Premier League Manager to leave | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Steve Cooper | 6/4 | 40% |
| David Moyes | 11/4 | 26.7% |
| Cristian Stellini | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Ruben Selles | 12/1 | 7.7% |
Brendan Rodgers and Graham Potter both leave their roles on Sunday
Sunday saw a shock double departure from the Premier League with Leicester parting ways with Brendan Rodgers and Chelsea sacking Graham Potter with just 10 games left of the season.
Rodgers left Leicester following their 2-1 loss to Crystal Palace with the Foxes sat in 19th place in the Premier League table and in danger of relegation this season.
Potter on the other hand was sacked from Chelsea with the club in 11th place in the table despite spending massive money in the January window to turn their fortunes around.
The Blues now sit 12 points off Top 4 and 5 points off Top 6 in the Premier League and a tough Champions League tie against Real Madrid is on the cards in April too.
Nottingham Forest now 4/5 to be relegated from the Premier League
Nottingham Forest are now odds-on to be relegated from the Premier League this season following their 1-1 home draw against Wolves at the weekend.
Southampton remain the favourites to go down and their odds have shortened further into 1/5 after their 1-0 defeat to West Ham on Sunday left them cut adrift at the bottom of the table and 3 points off safety.
Forest have a 55% chance of being relegated from the league this season according to the latest betting odds available.
| Premier League Relegation | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Southampton | 1/5 | 83.3% |
| Nottingham Forest | 4/5 | 55.6% |
| Bournemouth | 1/1 | 50% |
| Everton | 7/4 | 36.4% |
| Leicester | 5/2 | 28.6% |
