West Ham boss David Moyes is the bookies' favourite to be the next Premier League boss to be sacked - with Frank Lampard and Antonio Conte also in danger.
The sack race is heating up this season as we move into 2023 with a number of managers finding themselves under pressure after a run of poor form, though it is Moyes who is under the microscope following five straight defeats.
The Hammers lost 2-0 at home to Brentford last time out, having also been beaten 3-1 by Arsenal on Boxing Day - and Moyes will need to pick up results fast ahead of their clash against Leeds United on January 4.

Moyes is as short as 5/4 to lose his job after his side's worrying run of losses, via Oddschecker, and he will need to work his magic to bring about the form that saw his side finish seventh last season.
They currently occupy 17th position - level on points with 18th placed Nottingham Forest and face a real dog fight to survive.
He will be hoping to avoid joining the five managers who have already been axed in the Premier League so far - Scott Parker (Bournemouth), Thomas Tuchel (Chelsea), Bruno Lage (Wolves), Steven Gerrard (Aston Villa) and Ralph Hasenhuttl (Southampton).
