The odds on Salford City Fc to win promotion from the English League Two have shortened from 1/4 to 1/10, with four of 22 bookmakers cutting their odds.
The odds on Salford City Fc to win promotion from the English League Two have been slashed from 1/4 to 1/10 with Star Sports, and on current form it is very hard to argue with the move.
Four of 22 bookmakers have cut their odds on Salford City Fc to win promotion from the English League Two, with 1/4 still the best price available at PricedUp.
Salford won 4-2 away at Walsall on 26 October, ending the home side's unbeaten start to the league campaign.
That result was a seventh consecutive league victory and kept Peter Cklamovski's side top of the League Two table.
Barnet are next in the market at 8/15 with Boyle Sports, ahead of York City at 11/10 with Betfair Sportsbook.
The win at the Bescot Stadium was messy, but it was a statement all the same. Macaulay Langstaff broke the deadlock in first-half stoppage time, and after the break Jorge Grant, Kallum Cesay and Adebola Oluwo all found the net to seal a 4-2 victory on the road. The moment that told you most about this Salford side came when Walsall drew level: Cesay, on from the bench, put them back in front within a minute. Teams that bounce back that quickly from a setback don't tend to go away, and Salford's attack is clearly the engine room of this campaign.
That is why the market has reacted the way it has. The Walsall result made it a seventh straight league win, after a narrow victory away at Bristol Rovers the week before, and it consolidated top spot on the log. Bookmakers have cut the price right down to 1/10 with Star Sports on the back of it. When a side keeps finding goals from different players and keeps winning on the road, that kind of market move follows naturally.
English League Two Promotion odds

How short are the odds on Salford City Fc to win promotion from the English League Two?
Salford City Fc are the favourites at a best price of 1/4 with PricedUp, with Barnet the closest challengers and York City and Chesterfield behind them. The chasing pack has its own story to settle, because Barnet host York City at The Hive London in a meeting between two automatic promotion contenders. York arrive on a five-match unbeaten league run after beating Port Vale, while Barnet were held at home by Oldham Athletic last time out. Whoever comes out of that one on top, they are still looking up at Salford.
Salford City Fc – 1/4 with PricedUp. Top of the log after seven league wins on the bounce, with goals coming from all over the pitch.
Barnet – 8/15 with Boyle Sports. Second in the table, though the home draw with Oldham Athletic took a little shine off.
York City – 11/10 with Betfair Sportsbook. Fifth and unbeaten in five league outings, with the meeting with Barnet a proper test.
Chesterfield – 5/4 with Betway. The longest price of the four priced candidates.

Can Salford City Fc win promotion from the English League Two?
Next up, Salford host Exeter City at The Peninsula Stadium on Saturday, and Exeter arrive without midfielder Reece Cole, who is suspended after a red card against Stevenage. After that comes a trip to Carlisle in the FA Cup, which is more of a detour than a threat to the league push. Our view is simple: with Langstaff, Cesay and company sharing the goals, Salford are the side everyone else is chasing, and nothing in the chasing pack's recent results suggests that changes soon. There is not much value left at 1/10 with Star Sports for backing this particular outcome. If you want in, take the 1/4 with PricedUp rather than the shorter prices elsewhere.
