Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez is now 9/1 to lose his job
before the turn of the year, thanks to his side's 2-0 defeat at
Portsmouth on Saturday.
Manager Benitez, who this
week "guaranteed" that his side will finish fourth in the Premier
League, is a front-runner to be fired, after five years in the hot
seat at Anfield.
Bookmakers William Hill are also offering
13/8 that Liverpool will finish in the top four and 4/9 that
they will not after their 2-0 defeat at bottom-of-the-table
Pompey.
"Rafa's guarantee has a hollow ring to it after the defeat by
Portsmouth," William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe told
sportinglife.com.
"We are now offering just 7/1 that Liverpool finish in the
bottom half of the table," he added.
