Friday's market moves
Last updated: 3rd October 2008
Moyes: Under pressure
David Moyes is just 5/4 with Sky Bet not to see out the season as manager of Everton after the Toffeemen were dumped out of the UEFA Cup on Thursday by Belgian side Standard Liège.
Moyes, who is yet to sign his new contract with Everton, is 5/1 second favourite to be the next casualty of the Premier League sack race, with beleaguered Spurs boss Juande Ramos the 9/4 favourite.
Tottenham scraped into the group stages of the UEFA Cup on Thursday with a 2-1 aggregate win over Wisla Krakow but Ramos remains under pressure to restore their ailing fortunes in the Premier League and is just 5/6 with Sky Bet to see out the season as manager.
Winless Spurs are 8/11 to get their first league victory when Hull visit White Hart Lane on Sunday, 4/1 to pick up their first three points at Stoke on Oct 19 and 33/1 not to get their first win until they visit Fulham in mid November.
Six of the best
Sky Bet have produced odds on who will score the fastest goal (by minute) on Saturday across the English and Spanish top divisions.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who opened his account for Manchester United in the 60th minute last Saturday, is 13/5 favourite to find the net quickest of six likely candidates.
Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor, who scored a brace for the Gunners in midweek, is 3/1 second favourite to score the quickest goal, with Barcelona's Samuel Eto'o quoted at 7/2. 25/1 is quoted for none of the six players to score on Saturday.
Real Madrid's Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has scored three times in four games, is Sky Bet's 5/2 favourite to score the fastest goal in a similar market on Sunday, with Jermain Defoe, who scored a penalty for Portsmouth in the 34th minute last Sunday, 7/2 second best.
Bouncebackability
After a shock defeat to Hull last Saturday, Arsenal bounced back defiantly with a 4-0 victory over FC Porto in midweek and Sky Bet are offering odds on which team will beat the Gunners next.
It's 4/1 for Arsenal not to suffer another defeat until they travel to Fenerbahce in the Champions League on October 21, 11/2 for Roy Keane's Sunderland to be next to defeat the Gunners on Saturday, 15/2 for Everton to be next to beat them on October 18th and 11/10 for the Gunners to remain undefeated throughout October.
