Pellegrini in grave danger of losing Man City job, Real Madrid's Ancelotti favoured

Bookmakers suggest Manuel Pellegrini will be the next manager to lose his job in the Premier League.

SkyBet reports that the Chilean is odds-on to be sacked by Manchester City after Sunday's 4-2 derby defeat at Manchester United.

Pellegrini is 4/5 to lose his job, making him far and away the favourite to be the next boss in England's top flight to be relieved of his duties, while the 'no more departures this season' category is second favourite at 5/4.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has been installed at 18/1 to replace Pellegrini at the Etihad Stadium.
