Sack race odds: David Moyes price crashes as West Ham pressure grows

The Hammers are mired in the bottom three2-0 derby defeat by Tottenham, struggling to build on two seasons of success under the Scot.

Moyes led the Irons to sixth in 2020/21 and backed that up with a run to the Europa League semi-finals and a seventh-placed finish last term.

But things have been very different in 22/23 as West Ham have battled at the bottom all campaign and currently sit 18th.

Potter had come in as short as 1/4 on Saturday evening after Chelsea lost to Fulham but another defeat for the Hammers, combined with the realisation of some punters that they face a crunch encounter with Nottingham Forest on Saturday, has seen the money head towards Moyes.

Some firms are already offering a market for who will replace the former Manchester United and Everton manager, with Rafa Benitez the current favourite to arrive at London Stadium.

Next permanent West Ham manager (odds via Sky Bet)

  • Rafa Benitez - 3/1
  • Nuno Espirito Santo - 8/1
  • Ange Postecoglu - 9/1
  • Mauricio Pochettino - 10/1
  • Steven Gerrard - 10/1
  • Marcelo Bielsa - 12/1
  • Mark Noble - 16/1
  • Michael Carrick - 16/1
  • Carlos Corberan - 25/1
  • Enzo Maresca - 25/1
