  • Graham Potter pressure eased after West Ham's victory

Nuno Espirito Santo Now 6/4 Favourite After Forest’s Defeat

The Premier League sack race is already heating up and Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo has emerged as the frontrunner after his side’s heavy 3-0 home defeat to West Ham.

Bookmakers have slashed the Portuguese coach into 6/4 favourite to be the first Premier League manager to leave this season, with pressure intensifying on the City Ground dugout after a poor start.

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim follows close behind at 3/1, with fans and pundits openly questioning his future after last week’s shock Carabao Cup defeat to League Two Grimsby Town.

Amorim's team followed that performance with a dramatic 3-2 win over Burnley with Bruno Fernandes scoring an injury time penalty to secure all three points for the Reds.

BetVictor's latest odds give a 40% implied probability that Forest become the first team to make a managerial change this season.

Amorim and Potter Under Pressure

Despite starting his first full season in the Old Trafford hot seat, Amorim has not had the easiest of starts with early cup elimination and an underwhelming beginning in the league. 

Punters are already sensing further turbulence, reflected in his 3/1 price.

Meanwhile, Graham Potter is 4/1 to be the first to go in with pressure easing slightly following the Hammers 3-0 victory against Forest on Sunday.

What the expert says...
The sack race always produces plenty of volatility, but after Forest’s 3-0 defeat to West Ham it’s no surprise to see Nuno Espirito Santo move into 6/4 favourite. Ruben Amorim has been well backed at 3/1 and the shock Carabao Cup exit has intensified speculation around his future.
