Next Premier League Manager To Leave Odds: Arne Slot New Favourite In Sack Race
Arne Slot is the odds-on favourite with betting sites to become the next Premier League manager to leave his role on the back of a remarkable fall-out with Mohamed Salah.
Four managers have already been shown the door this season and Leeds boss Daniel Farke was the hot favourite to become the fifth, but the crisis at Anfield is threatening to unseat Slot.
Will the Dutchman follow Vitor Pereira, Ange Postecoglou, Graham Potter and Nuno Espirito Santo in losing his job just seven months after leading the club to the Premier League title?
We take a look at the main contenders for the boot and the latest Premier League sack race odds.
Next Premier League Manager To Leave Odds: Money On Slot
Slot’s decision to drop Salah for the last three games has caused what seems to be an irreparable breakdown between the pair.
The Egyptian gave an explosive interview following a 3-3 draw at Leeds in which he claimed he had been “thrown under the bus” by the club and that he was being blamed for the club’s woes this season.
The Reds legend added that “all of a sudden we don’t have a relationship” with the manager and that “someone doesn’t want me in the club”.
Slot responded by leaving Salah out of the squad altogether for the Champions League match at Inter Milan and in his pre-match press conference said he was unsure whether the 33-year-old winger, who signed a new deal in the summer, would play for the club again.
It remains to be seen whether Salah is sold in the January transfer window or Slot’s decision to drop one of the best players to have played for the club leads to his dismissal.
Slot was already under pressure before his spat with Salah after overseeing nine defeats in 15 matches in all competitions and is 4/6 with one of the football betting sites to be the next top-flight manager to leave his post.
Premier League Sack Race Odds: Parker In Firing Line
Scott Parker seemed relatively safe at 11/1 in last month’s update, but a lot can change quickly in football and the Burnley manager is now 7/2 second favourite to be shown the door next.
Parker led the Clarets back to the Premier League with a remarkable 100 points thanks to a watertight defence, but six successive defeats have left the club second from bottom, five points from safety.
Only seemingly-doomed Wolves have conceded more than Burnley’s 30 goals this season and they are the third lowest scorers (16) in the division.
A lack of threat going forward, coupled with defensive frailties, is not a good combination and it’s no surprise that Parker is 7/2 with William Hill to get the boot next.
Premier League Sack Race Odds:
Manager | Club | Odds | Betting Site |
Arne Slot | Liverpool | 4/6 | |
Scott Parker | Burnley | 7/2 | |
Daniel Farke | Leeds | 4/1 | |
Thomas Frank | Tottenham | 12/1 | |
Ruben Amorim | Manchester United | 14/1 | |
Marco Silva | Fulham | 14/1 | |
Nuno Espirito Santo | West Ham | 28/1 |
Farke Back From The Brink
Leeds manager Daniel Farke seemed to be living on borrowed time after a 2-1 home defeat by Aston Villa left the club marooned in the relegation zone ahead of a tough run of fixtures.
Matters seemed to be getting worse when United trailed 2-0 at half-time in their next match at Manchester City, but Farke’s decision to switch to a 5-3-2 has transformed their season.
Leeds hauled themselves level in the second half and seemed to be heading for a draw until Phil Foden struck at the death.
However, fans were encouraged by a more positive approach from their team, who then went on to beat Chelsea 3-1 and draw 3-3 with Liverpool thanks to a stoppage-time equaliser.
With Leeds out of the bottom three, Farke is now 4/1 in the Premier League sack race odds.
Frank Position Still Uncertain
Thomas Frank made a great start as Tottenham manager, but he has since hit a few bumps in the road and is fourth favourite to be the next top-flight manager to get the boot.
Spurs won three of their opening four games, but are now in the bottom half of the table on the back of a five-game winless streak which came to an end with an encouraging 2-0 victory over Brentford at the weekend.
The Dane had criticised fans for booing goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario for a mistake which led to Fulham’s second goal in a 2-1 defeat towards the end of November, but four points from Spurs’ last two games have got the supporters back onside.
Frank is still not in the clear though and is priced at 12/1 to be the next Premier League manager to lose his job.
Amorim And Silva Now Outsiders
Ruben Amorim’s future was under scrutiny at the start of the season, but Manchester United have lost just one of their last nine Premier League games and there is less focus on the manager.
A 4-1 victory at bottom-of-the-table Wolves lifted the Red Devils to sixth in the table, which has seen Amorim’s odds drift to 14/1.
Marco Silva was the 15/8 second favourite for the chop in November, but wins against Sunderland and Tottenham, followed by a thrilling 5-4 home defeat by Manchester City, have eased the pressure.
Marco reacts to this afternoon's game.

Silva is now 14/1 on betting apps to be the next Premier League manager to leave his post.
Nuno Espirito Santo, who was sacked by Nottingham Forest earlier this season, is 28/1 despite West Ham being in the bottom three.
