Premier League Sack Race 2025/26 Odds: Nuno Espirito Santo new favourite following Ruben Amorim sacking

West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo has been reinstalled as the favourite in the Premier League Sack Race following Manchester United's decision to sack Ruben Amorim.

Amorim became the sixth top-flight boss to lose his job - and second in 2026 - after he was axed following United's 1-1 draw against Leeds.

Read on for the latest standings in the Sack Race.

Premier League Sack Race 2025/26 Odds: The Favourites

We've run through the top contenders to be the seventh exit of the season, according to the latest odds - see the full market in the odds table above.

Nuno Santo (West Ham): 2/1

Nuno Santo, 2/1, is the favourite to become the seventh Premier League manager to lose his job.

West Ham's winless run was extended to nine matches, stretching back to early November, after they were thrashed 3-0 by a previously winless Wolves.

The Hammers, 18th, are four points adrift of safety with a must-win trip at home to Nottingham Forest up next.

Scott Parker (Burnley): 5/1

Scott Parker, 5/1, was the unfortunate “winner” of the Premier League Sack Race in 2022/23 after being dismissed by Bournemouth in the wake of their 9-0 hammering at Anfield.

His current side, Burnley, have shown promise at times - notably with back-to-back October victories over Leeds and Wolves - and came agonisingly close to taking points off both Liverpool and Manchester United.

However, despite those small positives, only Wolves have picked up fewer points than the Clarets, who are 19th in the table and without a win in 11 games (nine of which they've lost).

Thomas Frank (Tottenham): 7/1

Thomas Frank is still among the contenders at 7/1 as he works through a challenging spell at Tottenham.

Tottenham have claimed only two wins from their last 11 top-flight games, with just one win in five.

Spurs claimed a much-needed 1-0 win away to Crystal Palace just after Christmas, but have since been held by both Brentford and Sunderland, with Bournemouth, West Ham, and Burnley up next.

Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace): 6/1

Oliver Glasner could be one to monitor at Crystal Palace, given the current situation at Man United.

The Austrian, who has led the Eagles to FA Cup and Community Shield glory, has been installed as one of the bookmakers' favourite to take charge of the Red Devils following the exit of Amorim.

Arne Slot (Liverpool): 16/1

Liverpool may now be unbeaten in nine matches across all competitions, but recent draws at home to Leeds and away at Fulham have stalled their momentum.

Their attacking output has been disrupted, with Mo Salah away at AFCON, Alexander Isak sidelined with a long-term injury, and Hugo Ekitike now also nursing a hamstring issue, though the club is hopeful of a swift return.

Despite the Reds’ unbeaten run, Slot is priced at 16/1 with William Hill. However, BetVictor have significantly shortened his odds to 4/1, making him a manager to watch closely in the coming weeks.
