Premier League sack race odds offer context to pressure facing Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch

Jesse Marsch may be under pressure at Leeds United, but is by no means the favourite to become the next Premier League boss to face the sack.

Marsch is seventh on the list of candidates at 16/1, despite failing to register a single victory in any of Leeds' last six games across all competitions. Leeds have registered back-to-back draws over Newcastle and West Ham in their last two league games to sit two points above the relegation zone.

According to Betfair, Everton boss Frank Lampard is the leading favourite to become the next Premier League manager to leave his post. The former Derby and Chelsea boss is currently odds-on to depart Goodison Park at 4/9.

Everton are winless in their last eight games across all competitions and currently sit in the relegation zone with just three wins to their name.

The pressure is also building on Graham Potter at Stamford Bridge, and he is joint-second favourite along with West Ham head coach David Moyes.

Potter has struggled since swapping Brighton for Chelsea in September, and has suffered elimination from both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup respectively.

In addition to that, Chelsea sit 10th in the Premier League, and are an astonishing 10 points adrift of the top four, and a further 19 points behind league leaders Arsenal.

Moyes is also facing his most difficult period during his second stint at the London Stadium. West Ham edged past Brentford in the FA Cup third round, but have failed to register a win in their last seven in the Premier League (D1 L6).

The Hammers are only outside the relegation zone due to their marginally superior goal difference, and Moyes and Potter are both 6/1 to become the next manager to bite the bullet.

Nathan Jones is in desperate need of a miracle at Southampton, after losing in each of his first four league games at the helm.

Saints defeated Crystal Palace in the FA Cup third round on Saturday, and face Manchester City in the Carabao Cup quarter-final in midweek.

However, they are currently rooted to the foot of the table in the Premier League, and Jones is 8/1 to be dismissed.

Elsewhere, Gary O'Neil of Bournemouth and Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers are also above Marsch in the list of candidates at 10/1 and 14/1 respectively.
