Sean Dyche has shortened further in the betting to be the first Premier League manager to leave this season, now leading the sack race at 13/8 after Everton were knocked out of the Carabao Cup on penalties at home by Southampton.

The Toffees went into Tuesday's third-round tie under pressure having surrendered a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 two games in succession, leaving them bottom of the table with no points from four games.

They took a first-half lead through Abdoulaye Doucoure but after that was cancelled out by Saints defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis, it was the visitors who emerged victorious from the shootout.

Dyche, who started the season as a 14/1 sack race outsider, takes his team to fellow strugglers Leicester on Saturday.
