The German manager is feeling the heat after Liverpool’s alarming downturn.
Jurgen Klopp Sacked? Liverpool boss now favourite to go next.
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp is the clear favourite to be the next Premier League manager to leave, with his odds shortening dramatically over the weekend.
Just two days ago, Klopp was 50/1 to be the next boss out the door. Those odds have now been cut all the way into 1/1 best price.
One firm now actually makes the likelihood odds-on, with Sky Bet offering odds of 4/6.
That’s due to the high percentage of bets placed on Klopp leaving imminently, with 62% of all bets placed over the weekend, all backing the German tactician.

Next manager sacked: Mourinho and Hodgson also in the running
In turn, Klopp has now leapfrogged previous favourite Jose Mourinho, who has lengthened out to 5/2 with two bookmakers.
Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson is the third favourite at the time of writing, now priced at around 9/2 in the market.
‘No Premier League manager to leave’ is the next most likely option at 12/1, the same price as West Brom boss Sam Allardyce (12/1).
Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Jürgen Klopp was priced at 150/1 pre-season to be the first gone, with seemingly the safest job in the Premier League.
“Liverpool's remarkable downturn in form has, out of nowhere, seen the pressure crank up on the Premier League winning boss.
"The German should have far too much credit in the bank to avoid succumbing next, but the bookies now clearly believe otherwise."
Next Premier League Manager to leave odds:
- Jürgen Klopp – 1/1
- Jose Mourinho – 5/2
- Roy Hodgson – 9/2
- No Manager – 12/1
- Sam Allardyce – 12/1
- Steve Bruce – 14/1
- Nuno Espirito Santo – 20/1
- Scott Parker – 25/1
