  • Oliver Glasner is 4/6 favourite to be next Premier League manager sacked.
  • Palace fans displayed a protest banner during Sunday’s win over Wolves.
  • Fabian Hurzeler and Scott Parker sit joint second at 7/2.

Glasner Heads Sack Race After Fan Tensions

Odds have no been updated on Sack Race markets with Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner now the clear favourite with bookmakers to be the next Premier League boss to leave his role.

BetVictor price Glasner at 4/6 implying a 60% probability that he will be the next managerial departure this season.

Despite Palace’s 1-0 win over Wolves on Sunday, tension between the manager and sections of the fanbase has intensified.

Before the match, Glasner told supporters to “stay humble,” comments that sparked frustration among some fans. 

During the victory at Selhurst Park, a banner reading “fans disrespected – Glasner finished” was displayed.

Glasner’s 4/6 price makes him a strong favourite with Fabian Hurzeler and Scott Parker joint second at 7/2.

The significant gap to Eddie Howe at 20/1 highlights how focused this market currently is on Palace.

Glasner Responds to Fan Reaction

After the game, Glasner addressed the controversy directly:

“If they feel disrespected, they feel it. I didn't mean to disrespect anyone. Then it was maybe the wrong words taken.

But on the other side, I will always say what I think is right, and I'm telling this to my children maybe weekly.

Stay humble. Never forget where you're coming from.

If somebody felt to be disrespected, then I want to say sorry because I never want to disrespect anyone.”

The Palace boss also confirmed he has held clear-the-air talks with the higher powers at the club, insisting both the board and the players still believe in his ability to see out the season.

However, with bookmakers reacting quickly to the unrest, pressure is clearly mounting.

Board Backing vs Fan Pressure

While Glasner has publicly stated he retains the backing of the club hierarchy, Sack Race markets are often driven as much by narrative and perception as results.

Palace’s league position, combined with visible fan frustration, has clearly influenced betting sites.

Historically, once a manager moves to odds-on in this market, speculation tends to intensify rapidly.

Palace being knocked out of the Conference League this week would pile pressure on even more.

What the expert says...
When a manager moves to 4/6 in the Sack Race, it signals strong market confidence that pressure is building behind the scenes. The public apology may calm tensions temporarily but fan unrest combined with league position can accelerate decisions.
