Premier League relegation odds: Forest in the running after Ange appointment

Nottingham Forest's Premier League relegation odds have been slashed after the surprising sacking of Nuno Espirito Santo on September 9, 2025.
Ange Postecoglou's new side, who are going to be playing Europa League football this season, are now just 5/2 to be playing in the Championship come August 2026. The Australian manager is yet to win from his first six games in charge in all competitions.

Nottingham Forest odds shorten after Nuno's sacking
Forest were 10/1 to go down before Nuno's sacking during September's international break, but their odds have been cut to just 5/2 following a winless run of seven games to kick off Ange Postecoglou's tenure.
Still, after his European success last season, the ex-Spurs boss' new side are in the running to win the Europa League.
Sunderland and Burnley still tipped to struggle
Burnley are seen as the likeliest to be relegated, with Sunderland and Wolves rounding out the top three in the betting.
Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said: Whether it’s the contrasting styles of Ange Postecoglou and Nuno Espirito Santo or Spurs’ 17th-placed finish last season, the odds suggest that Forest’s Premier League status isn’t as secure as it was before Postecoglou’s arrival.
The hope for all of the promoted sides, and everyone else in the division for what it's worth, will be that they don't end the season with the lowest points tally in Premier League history.
Southampton ended the season with 12 points, just one more than Derby in 2007/08, who are regarded as the worst side in the history of the Premier League.
