Premier League Relegation Odds: Coventry City remain favourites

Coventry City remain favourites to be relegated from the Premier League despite picking up back-to-back wins.

The Sky Blues endured a 25-year wait to return to the top flight before Frank Lampard led the club to the Championship title last season.

Their return to the Premier League got off to a dismal start as they slumped to four successive defeats without scoring but the club bounced back by beating Nottingham Forest prior to the international break.

With their first win of the campaign secured, Coventry continued their momentum on Monday night by thrashing Newcastle United at the CBS Arena 4-1 to climb out of the relegation zone.

Despite their recent upturn in form however, the club remain odds-on to be relegated come the end of the season.

Like Coventry, fellow newly-promoted side Hull City remain favourites to suffer an immediate drop back into the second tier despite a promising start to life back in the Premier League.

Sergej Jakirovic's side have consistently exceeded expectations, and have lost just once since returning to the top flight via the play-offs.

A 2-2 draw with Everton at the MKM Stadium on Sunday left the Tigers higher than the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham in the table but they remain 4/5 to be relegated.

The most eye-catching team to feature prominently in the market is of course eight-time Premier League champions Manchester City at 13/8.

The Citizens have enjoyed a perfect start to the campaign under new manager Enzo Maresca and currently sit three points clear of defending champions Arsenal.

However, after being found guilty of serious breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations the club's top-flight status suddenly appears tenuous.

The club have always denied any wrongdoing and have stated they will appeal the verdict but they could reportedly face an unprecedented points deduction when the sanctions are decided.
