Premier League sack race odds: Roy Hodgson into favouritism as Vincent Kompany shortens

Crystal Palace are on their winter break, but that hasn't stopped Hodgson shortening in the betting.

He went into the weekend as a joint-favourite in the sack race with Erik ten Hag at 15/8, but has now taken the solo lead at 7/4.

Next Premier League manager to leave (odds via Sky Bet)

  • Roy Hodgson - 7/4
  • Erik ten Hag - 2/1
  • Eddie Howe - 4/1
  • Vincent Kompany - 5/1
  • Thomas Frank - 14/1
  • Mauricio Pochettino - 16/1

Odds correct at 2000 GMT (13/01/24)

Eddie Howe saw his price drift as a result, despite his side losing 3-2 to Manchester City on Saturday.

Vincent Kompany was the only other manager to have shortened in the betting, moving from 13/2 on Friday into 5/1, no doubt as a result of his side's draw with fellow strugglers Luton.
