It has been widely suggested that Roberto Di Matteo will be given the Chelsea job after his incredible work in the second half of the season. William Hill offer 11/10 that the Italian is no longer boss on the first day of the 2013/14 season.

Di Matteo came in last season and performed admirably and it would be somewhat of an injustice if he was not given a fair crack of the whip, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. Abramovichs axe, however, is never far from the necks of his managers and if RDM slips up in the shadow of Guardiola, wholesale changes could be afoot.

As Pep Guardiola stepped down at Barcelona, Roman Abramovichs eyes must have lit up, but with the Spaniard claiming that he wanted a year away from the game, the Chelsea tycoon could not bag his man. William Hill are, however, offering 6/1 that by the time the 2013/14 season rolls round, the former Barca boss is sat at the helm at Stamford Bridge.

Roberto Di Matteo to be manager at the start of the 2013/14 season: 4/6 yes; 11/10 no

6/1 Pep Guardiola to be Chesea manager at the start of the 2013/14 season

*both bets only count should Roberto Di Matteo be named as next permanent Chelsea manager

November 29, 2010 Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments Alex Mcleish, David Moyes, Didier Deschamps, Fb, Frank Rijkaard, Gerard Houllier, Gianfranco Zola, Gus Poyet, Guus Hiddink, Harry Redknapp, Jurgen Klinsmann, Marcello Lippi, Martin O Neill, Premier League Manager, Roberto Di Matteo, Roberto Mancini, Roman Abramovich, Roy Hodgson, Sam Allardyce, Sir Alex Ferguson, Tony Pulis

Chelsea have denied that Carlo Ancelotti is leaving Chelsea and have assured him of his short term future. This does not stop him from being the 11/4 second favourite at William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave their post. Avram Grant is the 10/11 favourite in the sack race while Roberto Mancini completes the top three at 4/1. Ancelotti is 1/10 to have left Chelsea before Roman Abramovich.

“Ancelotti, looks safe for now but the odds suggest that he is on very shaky ground,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Chelsea are 5/4 to win no trophies this season, although the Blues are 11/10 to win this year’s Premier League.

Guus Hiddink is the 6/4 favourite to be the next permanent Chelsea manager, ahead of 13/2 Didier Deschamps and 8/1 Frank Rijkaard. Fan’s favourite Jose Mourinho is 10/1.

Next Permanent Chelsea Manager: 6/4 Guus Hiddink; 13/2 Didier Deschamps; 8/1 Frank Rijkaard; 10/1 Jose Mourinho; 12/1 Fabio Capello; 12/1 Martin O’Neill; 14/1 Jurgen Klinsmann; 16/1 David Moyes; 16/1 Roberto Di Matteo; 20/1 Gus Poyet; 20/1 Marcello Lippi; 20/1 Steve Clarke; 20/1 Gianfranco Zola; 25/1 Harry Redknapp; 33/1 Mark Hughes; 33/1 Sven Goran Eriksson; 66/1 Dennis Wise; 66/1 Ray Wilkins; 66/1 Sir Alex Ferguson
