Everton boss Sean Dyche is sack favourite after source's reveal

Everton manager Sean Dyche is the bookmakers’ new favourite to become the first managerial casualty of the 2024-25 Premier League season.

Football Insider revealed (September 17) that Everton are expected to sack Dyche, 53, if they lose their next league matches against Leicester City and Crystal Palace.

William Hill now has Dyche at 15/8 to be sacked, just ahead of Man United manager Erik ten Hag at 5/1 and Southampton boss Russell Martin at 11/2.

Newly appointed Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca isn’t far behind at 8/1 with Steve Cooper, the man who replaced him at Leicester, at 9/1.

Wolves manager Gary O’Neil rounds off the top six with odds of 12/1 to be the first Premier League manager sacked.

The Merseyside club sit bottom of the Premier League table, the first time they’ve lost their opening four games in 66 years.

Dyche’s side remarkably lost their last two games against Bournemouth and Aston Villa 3-2 after going two goals ahead in both fixtures.

Dyche’s sides are usually notorious for being solid at the back, it’s the exact reason he was able to save them from the drop last season.

This season, however, they’ve shipped 13 goals in their first four games, the worst record in the Premier League with Wolves conceding two less.

Not only are they leaking goals, they remain winless on the road this calendar year, an unwanted record ahead of their clash with Leicester City at the King Power Stadium this weekend.

The manager now has two games to save his skin but first, he will have to face Southampton in the League Cup on Tuesday (September 17).
