Ange Postecoglou appears under increasing pressure after Tottenham Hotspur lost 2-0 to Aston Villa and exited the FA Cup at the fourth round stage.

The defeat comes three days after Spurs surrendered a 1-0 lead in the League Cup semi-finals and were well-beaten 4-0 at Anfield by Liverpool. These back-to-back defeats followed a first Premier League victory of the year against Brentford, which ended a seven-match winless run in the league.

That moved Tottenham up to 14th in the table, but should the team stay there, it would represent their worst finish in over two decades. As such, Postecoglou is the consensus next top-flight coach to go across the various betting markets.

Multiple bookmakers already have odds live on who will be the next permanent Spurs head coach. One is Betfair, who has Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola, Kieran McKenna, Marco Silva and Thomas Frank as joint-favourites.

All four are 11/2, with the out-of-work former Borussia Dortmund head coach and one-time West Ham United assistant manager Edin Terzic close behind them at 13/2. Mauricio Pochettino is the sixth favourite at 7/1, less than a year after being sacked by Chelsea.

Current assistant coach Ryan Mason follows his former boss in the odds at 9/1 after having two spells in interim charge during 2021 and 2023, encompassing 13 matches combined. Erik ten Hag is next at 10/1, not even four months after being sacked by Manchester United and even sooner after missing out on replacing Nuri Sahin at Dortmund, with Nico Kovac getting that job instead.

Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe is then at 14/1, the same odds as ex-England manager Gareth Southgate. The former Barcelona and Juventus head coaches Xavi Hernandez and Massimiliano Allegri are at 16/1.

In the 20s are Michael Carrick and Kjetil Knutsen (both 20/1); Brendan Rodgers, Julian Nagelsmann, Roberto De Zerbi and Steven Gerrard (25/1). Diego Simone, Gian Piero Gasperini and Michel (33/1) are at the next price, with Luis Enrique and Zinedine Zidane at 40/1.

Cesc Fabregas, Roberto Martinez, Sean Dyche and Unai Emery are next at 50/1. Antonio Conte, Nuno Espirito Santo and Ralf Rangnick are all 66/1, while Jose Mourinho and Jurgen Klopp are 125/1.
