The Spurs coach was previously available at 10/1 following their shock victory over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

Conte was in high spirits that afternoon and described his squad as one of the best he's ever worked with.

But Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Burnley has sent Spurs crashing back down to earth with the Italian now leading the sack race at 15/8.

Conte headed straight to the dressing room after the full-time whistle, and later suggested he may not be the right man to manage the club.

He said: "I came here to help the club and if the problem could be the coach I'm ready to go, no problem.

"I am not used to this situation. I am trying everything but the situation is not changing. I am available and open with the club to do what the club wants.

"I want to help the club, I work a lot, I work very hard. I am giving 20 hours a day to Tottenham and the other four hours I sleep but it is not enough.

"I came in to try to improve the situation. Maybe in this moment I am not so good to improve the situation. I am too honest to close my eyes and continue in this way."

Spurs have now lost four of their last five top-flight matches, and sit in eighth position — seven points off the Champions League places.

Leeds hero Marcelo Bielsa is next in the betting at 11/4.

The Yorkshire club were humiliated at Anfield, losing 6-0 to Liverpool and sinking further into a relegation scrap.

Leeds have lost four of their last five league matches and have conceded a massive 17 goals in the process.

Brendan Rodgers comes next at 4/1 having been priced at 4/5 earlier this week.

The Foxes are 12th in the Premier League table on 27 points from 23 matches, seven points above the relegation zone and 15 behind sixth-placed Arsenal in the European places.

Leicester are winless in their last FIVE top-flight outings, and have only pieced together six victories in their last 21 matches in all competitions.
