Most betting sites have slashed the odds on Gary O'Neil in their Premier League Sack Race market, after Wolves have made a poor start to the season.

The team's latest defeat of the season - 2-1 to West Ham Monday night - was their 10th of the season from 15 games, leaving them in 19th place and four points from safety. They have had real trouble keeping clean sheets, conceding seven more goals than any other team in the Premier League.

The best football betting sites are anticipating Wolves and O'Neil parting company sooner rather than later, with a number of names linked with the role.

Could Sérgio Conceição Make Switch to Premier League?

Sérgio Conceição is a highly respected manager who achieved great things at FC Porto, and it’s hard to get away from the fact that Wolverhampton Wanderers could leverage that Portuguese connection to potentially secure someone of that nationality to take charge of a squad that have a number of native Portuguese speaking players.

Conceição experienced success domestically and in the Champions League, especially when achieving a knockout win over Juventus while in charge of Porto. The manager steered the Portuguese club to three Primeira Liga titles before moving on from his role at the end of last season.

This would surely be a popular appointment with the Wolves fans considering the manager’s track record is impressive, and most new betting sites think he could be the person most likely sought after if O'Neil leaves.

David Moyes Could be Safe Pair of Hands at Molineux

It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Wolves turn to someone with Premier League experience to try to keep them up, and ex-West Ham boss David Moyes might be the man for the job. Results were never the problem for Moyes at West Ham, it was the style of football fans of The Irons had a problem with. 

However, with Wolves in a precarious situation, and their fans cheering ironically when their goalkeeper kicks it long, he will get a pass on exciting football if he is able to steady the ship and get them out of the relegation zone. He's seen as a viable contender with most betting apps at this point.

Another Portuguese Manager For Wolves?

Wolves have a history with Portuguese managers, with Nuno Espirito Santo and Bruno Lage two of their more recent bosses. Pedro Martins was reportedly keen on the Molineux job back in 2022, when Lage was dismissed. They opted for Julen Lopetegui instead, and Martins found his way to Qatar, where he currently manages Al-Gharafa. A switch to the Premier League would no doubt be appealing for him, and he ranks among the favourites to get the job with many acca insurance betting sites.

Steve Cooper Could be of Interest

Steve Cooper is rightly regarded as a strong manager in the Premier League having taken Nottingham Forest into the top division and keeping them up in their first season. He was then relieved of his duties during their second year in the Premier League. He moved to Forest rivals Leicester City in what was an ill-fated move. The fans never warmed to him and he was sacked as manager despite the team being outside the relegation zone. He is unattached and is sure to interest the Wolves hierarchy.
