Julen Lopetegui's is now bookies' favourite to be the next Premier League manager to face the axe following Tueday night's demoralising defeat at Leicester.
The Spanish Head Coach appears to be a dead man walking after his side suffered a seventh Premier League reversal of the campaign - half of the 14 matches played so far.Lopetegui finds himself at the head of the market following a disappointing set of results for West Ham, with Everton manager Sean Dyche next likeliest to lose his job at 5/1.
Russell Martin (6/1) and Gary O'Neil (12/1) follow the front two in the market, with Manchester City's Pep Guardiola at 20/1 after five league games without a win.
"Following reports that members of the West Ham board have lost faith in their head coach, we've cut Julen Lopetegui to 1/2 to be the next Premier League manager to leave their post," said BetVictor's Sam Boswell.
"Not many fans would expect Pep Guardiola to be in the sack race, but a run of poor form has seen the Spaniard supported into 20/1 to go next."
