Who are the favourites to be relegated from the Premier League?
Coventry City
Coventry are also favoured to go straight back down to the Championship.
The Sky Blues did win the second tier at a canter last season, and have made some astute signings, breaking their transfer record four times already this transfer window.
However, after a 25-year absence from the Premier League, it will be difficult for them to maintain their levels with the top flight being such a step up.
Coventry’s start could not get any tougher with an away trip to Premier League champions Arsenal, and they lost all four of their opening games this season without scoring a goal, although they put that right with back-to-back wins against Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United respectively.
Current price range: 4/7 (William Hill) to 8/13 (bet365, BetMGM, Ladbrokes, Betfred). Best available: 8/13 (bet365, BetMGM, Ladbrokes, Betfred).
Hull City
Hull are favourites to make the swift return to the Championship, according to all of our selected bookmakers.
The Tigers finished in sixth place in the second tier last season, and were only promoted through the play-offs.
It was a somewhat surprising finish for Hull, who ranked second-from-bottom in terms of expected goals conceded (xGC) and were not favoured to go up at the start of the campaign.
They did significantly strengthen in the transfer market, and are currently outside of the relegation zone, but there is still a feeling that they could eventually be caught up.
Current price range: 8/13 (Ladbrokes) to 8/11 (William Hill). Best available: 8/11 (William Hill).
Manchester City
Outside of the promoted sides, Manchester City are ones to watch for potential relegation.
Their odds have plummeted since they have been found guilty of 115 charges with regards to Premier League financial regulations.
Given previous sanctions to the likes of Everton and Nottingham Forest, this could be catastrophic for the Cityzens, who could face a heavy point deduction.
That would mean almost certain relegation, but they are likely to appeal the verdict, so it may be a case of wait and see in terms of what they are thrown with.
Current price range: 4/5 (bet365, BetMGM, William Hill, Betfred). Best available: 4/5 (bet365, BetMGM, William Hill, Betfred).
Ipswich Town
Ipswich could complete the set of all three newly-promoted sides being relegated from the Premier League.
It did not happen last season, with Leeds United and Sunderland not just surviving, but doing so comfortably.
However, there is still a sizeable gap in quality between the two divisions, and in recent seasons, all three promoted teams have gone down in the same campaign before.
Like Hull and Coventry, Ipswich significantly strengthened in the transfer window, but it remains to be seen whether it will be enough to keep them up, having been taught a couple of harsh lessons already this season in defeats to Manchester United and Liverpool.
Current price range: 2/1 (Ladbrokes, Betfred) to 9/4 (bet365, BetMGM, William Hill). Best available: 9/4 (bet365, BetMGM, William Hill).
Other contenders
Crystal Palace (5/2) are struggling to balance European football with the Premier League, while Sunderland (11/4) are currently bottom of the table.
Fulham (5/1) and Nottingham Forest (7/1) are seen as outsiders.
Premier League relegation prediction / betting tip
- Our picks: Hull City, Coventry City and Manchester City
- Best odds: bet365, Ladbrokes, William Hill, Betfred
- Reasoning: The gap between the Championship and the Premier League remains large, while Man City will likely face instant relegation if a points deduction is heavy enough following their charges.
- Main risk: Leeds United and Sunderland showed last season that newly-promoted teams can survive under the right circumstances, while possible sanctions for Man City have not yet been revealed at the time of writing.
How does Premier League relegation betting work?
An outright bet on Premier League relegation is a single wager on which three teams will be relegated at the end of the season on 30 May, 2027.
The bet remains active until one or more of your selected teams have mathematically avoided relegation or when all three teams have been confirmed to be relegated.
Odds move in response to results, injuries, suspensions and overall market sentiment: a run of poor results for a team already fancied to go down will shorten their price, whereas a good spell of form could see the odds get longer in their favour.
Most major bookmakers, including all five listed in the table above and many new UK betting sites, offer cash-out functionality on outright bets during the Premier League season, which can be used to reduce exposure if a team enters a particularly difficult part of the draw.
