Punters Back Martinez for Kop Job

MANCHESTER, England, May 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Wigan boss Roberto Martinez has been cut into 6/4 with Betfred for the top kop job at Liverpool following strong support from punters.

The move comes after Kenny Dalglish was relived from his duties on Wednesday afternoon after a disappointing season where the Reds finished eighth in the Premier League table.

Former Anfield chief Rafa Benitez is also fancied in the market at 2/1 to make a sensational return to the club.

Betfred spokesman John Hill said: "Roberto Martinez has done a tremendous job at Wigan this season in avoiding the drop on a limited budget. The Latics were one of the most in-from teams in the country in the final third of the campaign and it would be no surprise is Liverpool were to came in for the Spaniard."

Liverpool are 50/1 with Betfred to win the 2012-2013 Premier League title.
