Barnet to win promotion from the English League Two has shortened from 4/9 to 3/10 at best, with ten of 13 bookmakers cutting their odds.
The odds on Barnet to win promotion from the English League Two have been slashed from 4/9 to 1/4 with PricedUp after a statement comeback against York City.
Ten of 13 bookmakers have cut their odds on Barnet, with 3/10 the best price available at Ladbrokes.
Salford City remain the favourites at a best price of 2/9 with Coral, with Barnet second-shortest in the market.
Barnet came from behind to beat promotion rivals York City 3-1 on 27 October 2026, climbing to second in League Two.
Forward Kabongo Tshimanga grabbed the equaliser, his seventh goal in six appearances across all competitions.
Barnet went into the York game off the back of a slightly flat 1-1 home draw with Oldham Athletic, and things looked worse when they fell behind at The Hive. They responded with three unanswered goals to turn a nervy evening into a proper statement against a direct rival. Tshimanga led the fightback with the equaliser, and the forward's run in front of goal has been the story of Barnet's autumn.
That's the real reason the bookmakers moved so quickly. Barnet carry the most prolific attack in League Two this season, with 27 league goals already, and beating a fellow promotion contender rather than a side down the log carries extra weight with the traders. Put a firing attack together with a big result against a rival and you get the cut we've seen, with Barnet to win promotion from the English League Two now priced like a side the market fully trusts.

How do the odds on Barnet to win promotion from the English League Two compare with their rivals?
Salford City are the favourites at a best price of 2/9 with Coral, and their spot at the top of the log explains why. Barnet are second-shortest at 3/10 with Ladbrokes, and the gap between those two prices is slim, so the bookmakers clearly see little between the top two. Further back, York City and Chesterfield are priced as genuine outsiders, and on current evidence that feels about right.
Salford City – 2/9 with Coral. They lead League Two with 28 points from 13 games after a 4-2 win away at Walsall on 26 October.
Barnet – 3/10 with Ladbrokes. Second on 25 points after the comeback win over York City.
York City – 5/4 with Betfair Sportsbook. They finished with ten men at Barnet after Hiram Boateng was sent off for a second yellow card.
Chesterfield – 13/8 with Ladbrokes. Seventh on 19 points from 13 games, boosted by a 5-1 home win over Crewe Alexandra.
Latest bookmaker offer
What's next for the odds on Barnet to win promotion from the English League Two?
The next test comes quickly: Barnet are on the road at fourth-placed Crewe Alexandra at the Mornflake Stadium on 31 October, a fixture that will show whether the York result was a turning point or a one-off. After that, Tranmere Rovers visit The Hive in the FA Cup on 7 November. Our take is simple. Barnet's attack, with Tshimanga leading it, gives them every reason to stay in Salford's slipstream, but at 3/10 with Ladbrokes most of the value has already gone out of the price. Salford remain the side to catch, and anyone backing Barnet now is paying for goals they still have to score.
