Some lowly sides might embrace a new attacking verve and shoot up the table, while loftier clubs adjust to life without their dependable defender-turned-manager.
These disruptions cause short-term volatility that astute bettors can profit from. Fixtures immediate after a change tend to see goals galore as teams find their feet. Meanwhile, longer-term markets like top goalscorer and relegation likelihoods get scrambled. Players who were off the pace before can hit hot streaks under reinvigorated new systems.

Cross-reference form, fixtures and the managerial profiles to identify vulnerable and revitalized teams. With some strategic wagering informed by coaching changes, punters stand to profit handsomely from the chaos of soccer's seasonal shake-ups.
