The relegation odds for Everton have been cut by the bookmakers amid rumours of a 12-point deduction for breaching financial rules.
Everton have supposedly accumulated £371.8 million in losses over a three-year period, which is over three times the amount permitted by the league rules.
Rumours are that the Premier League bosses have recommended a 12-point deduction if they are found guilty of breaching financial fair play (FFP) rules.

Premier League Relegation Odds
If this point deduction was inflicted today, Sean Dyche’s team would be on -5 points, 10 points adrift from 17th position. Since the news broke this morning, Everton’s odds for relegation have been cut from 3/1 to 2/1 and could continue to crash if these stories persist.
| Team | Best Price | Worst Price |
|---|---|---|
| Sheffield United | 1/5 | 1/7 |
| Luton | 1/4 | 3/10 |
| Bournemouth | 8/5 | 11/8 |

| Nottingham Forest | 13/2 | 5/1 |

Everton Relegation Odds
Leon Blackman from oddschecker said: “Things could be going from bad to worse for Everton fans. Rumours swirling around a potential point-deduction have led bookies to cut their odds from 3/1 to 2/1 to be relegated this season.
“If Everton are given a 12-point deduction, their odds will surely be cut into odds-on in the betting market. 83.6% of bets today on the Premier League relegation market have been on Everton, with punters keen to get on these odds before they potentially shorten again. A 12-point deduction to Everton’s total last season would’ve left them finishing bottom of the Premier League table.”
Everton travel to West Ham for their next Premier League match on Sunday.
