Next Premier League manager to be sacked: Predictions made on futures of Liverpool, Aston Villa, Southampton, Leicester, Nottingham Forest and Leeds United bosses ahead of weekend fixtures

The pressure is on for a number of Premier League managers this weekend.

Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard is the odds-on favourite to be the next top-flight boss to be sacked, following a disappointing 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest on Monday night.

Villa sit 16th, three points above the relegation zone, having won just two of their opening nine games. They take on Chelsea this weekend.

Ralph Hasenhuttl is another manager who could do with a pressure-easing win, with his Southampton side just one point above the bottom three. They have a home contest with West Ham on Sunday.

Brendan Rodgers has endured a tough start with Leicester City this term, with the Foxes dropping to the foot of the table following Forest’s draw on Monday.

A home tie with Crystal Palace provides Rodgers the chance to take his side out of the bottom three – providing other results go their way.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is the fourth favourite to lose his job after a tough start to the campaign for the Reds. A 7-1 win over Rangers in the Champions League in midweek will have provided a much-needed lift.

Man City and Erling Haaland await on Sunday afternoon...
