Crystal Palace to be relegated from the Premier League has shortened from 3/1 to 2/1 at Paddy Power, with three of 22 bookmakers cutting their odds.
The odds on Crystal Palace to be relegated from the Premier League have been slashed from 3/1 to 2/1 with Paddy Power, and after Sunday's collapse at the Amex Stadium it is hard to argue with the bookmakers.
Brighton hammered Palace 5-0 at the Amex Stadium on Sunday, and the game was gone before the away side had settled.
Crystal Palace have shortened from 3/1 to 2/1 with Paddy Power, with three of 22 bookmakers cutting their odds on the drop.
Hull remain the favourites at 8/11 with Bet Victor, well clear at the top of the market.
The Brighton thrashing followed a 3-2 Europa League defeat away to Lyon, making it back-to-back competitive losses for Pierre Sage's side.
Sunday's 5-0 hiding at Brighton is the clearest reason the Crystal Palace odds have come under pressure. Palace were picked apart in the opening exchanges: defender Jaydee Canvot turned the ball into his own net early on, and Diego Gómez followed up with a strike from 51 metres while the away side were still trying to organise themselves. Walter Benítez started in goal with first-choice keeper Dean Henderson out with a foot and ankle injury, and a back line that leaky that early is exactly what makes bookmakers rethink a relegation price.
It was not a one-off either. Lyon beat Palace 3-2 in the Europa League on Thursday, and once again the damage was done in the first half. After Brighton, Pierre Sage accepted responsibility for his side's early defensive lapses and, when asked about his future, said it was not his decision. That is the kind of messy week that gets the market twitchy, and the odds on Crystal Palace to be relegated from the Premier League shortening into 2/1 with Paddy Power reflects it.

Will Crystal Palace be relegated from the Premier League?
Hull are the favourites at a best price of 8/11 with Bet Victor, and nobody is shorter in this market. Crystal Palace are out to 3/1 with Betway for the drop, some way further out than the sides setting the pace at the top of the market, but the weekend's result will do nothing to ease the concern among supporters. Here is how the top of the market looks on best prices:
Hull – 8/11 with Bet Victor, the shortest price on the board.
Coventry – 4/5 with AK Bets, Betfair Sportsbook, Betway and Skybet.
Man City – 7/4 with Bet Victor.
Ipswich – 85/40 with AK Bets.

How do Crystal Palace avoid relegation from the Premier League?
It starts at the back, because the early concessions against Lyon and Brighton are what moved this price, and Palace's games have been anything but stubborn affairs: there have been over 2.5 goals in 11 of Crystal Palace's last 13 games in the Premier League. Getting Henderson fit again would help settle things, while striker Jean-Philippe Mateta's return off the bench at Brighton after a hamstring injury at least gives them a focal point in front of goal. Newcastle are next up in the league, followed by Fulham in the League Cup, and a tighter defensive showing in those outings is the quickest way to halt the slide. Our view: the concern is justified on what we saw at the Amex, and for anyone who agrees, 2/1 with Paddy Power is the number worth noting.
