Given his reputation Benitez – a former European Cup winner and manager of Liverpool, Real Madrid and Chelsea, among others – remains largely out of the question when it comes to discussing which Premier League manager will be the first to lose his job in 2018/19.However, if history is any indicator, Benitez WILL be the first top flight boss dismissed this season. A study byBonusCodeBets.co.uktakes a look at the final five results of the previous 29 managers sacked, going back to the start of 2016/17.The study calculates that Benitez’s record over the past five matches most closely resembles the average record of the last 29 managers over their last five games before being sacked, out of all 20 current top flight bosses.145 games were analysed in total, and the following record is the average of all managers before their dismissal:4And below is Benitez’s record, which is the most similar to the historic average of all current Premier League managers:4A spokesperson forBonusCodeBets.co.uksaid: At this time of the season, all managers in the lower half of the league will begin to worry when results arent going their way. The research on recent statistics reveals that five games without a good result can often affect a chairmans decision. Of the 29 managers’ last five games, nine of them didnt register in a win in any of the last five games.So will Benitez be getting the axe? Newcastle host Bournemouth on Saturday in their final match before the international break, and a poor result could make the Cherries’ visit to St James’ Park his final match as Magpies manager.
