Kabongo Tshimanga to be the English League Two top goalscorer has shortened from 3/1 to 2/1 with Betfred, with three bookmakers cutting their odds.
The odds on Kabongo Tshimanga to be the English League Two top goalscorer have been slashed from 3/1 to 2/1 with Betfred, and on current form the Barnet man has earned every bit of that cut.
The move has three bookmakers cutting their odds on Kabongo Tshimanga, with 3/1 with Bet365 still the best price on offer.
Tshimanga had reached 10 League Two goals for Barnet by the end of October, with a healthy return of assists on top.
He scored the equaliser as Barnet came from behind to beat promotion rivals York City 3-1 at The Hive.
Aaron Drinan is the nearest challenger at 4/1 with Bet365, with Macauley Langstaff next in the betting.
No single confirmed catalyst sits behind this move, but you do not need a detective to work it out. Tshimanga scored in six consecutive League Two fixtures during October, and that kind of rhythm in front of goal is exactly what moves a top goalscorer market. The latest came against York City, when Arthur Read put the visitors ahead early and Tshimanga dragged Barnet level before they went on to win 3-1 at The Hive. Equalisers against promotion rivals are the goals that make bookmakers sit up, and this one did.
Betfred reacted first by cutting him to 2/1, and the wider picture explains why the firms are nervous rather than greedy. By 17 October, Tshimanga had 19 goals across all competitions in the 2026 calendar year, the most of any player in the top four divisions of English league football. That is not a hot fortnight. That is a forward who has been finding the net for months, and his finishing is the whole case for him heading the market.

Is Kabongo Tshimanga the favourite to be the English League Two top goalscorer?
He is, with Kabongo Tshimanga heading the market at a best price of 3/1 with Bet365 and nobody shorter. Aaron Drinan, Macauley Langstaff and Paul Mullin make up the chasing pack, but none of them arrives with the same run of scoring Tshimanga has put together this autumn. Our view is simple: the market has the order right, and the gap at the top is earned.
Kabongo Tshimanga – 3/1 with Bet365. The favourite after a run of scoring in six straight League Two fixtures.
Aaron Drinan – 4/1 with Bet365. Second in the betting and the closest price to the favourite.
Macauley Langstaff – 5/1 with Bet365 and Bet Victor. Joined Salford City from Millwall in July, and scored the opener plus an assist in a 4-2 win over Walsall.
Paul Mullin – 6/1 with Bet365. Joined League Two club Rotherham United in July and rounds out the leading four.

Will Kabongo Tshimanga be the English League Two top goalscorer?
There is a long road left, but the platform around him is solid. Barnet went into 31 October on a 10-match unbeaten away league run, with an away trip to Crewe Alexandra next on the list, and a side that keeps picking up results on the road keeps feeding its main man. Tshimanga's goals are the heartbeat of that push up the log, so as long as he stays fit and keeps getting service, his price has more reason to shorten than to drift. Our prediction is that the favourite deserves his place at the top of the market: 3/1 with Bet365 remains the best price available, while Betfred have already cut him to 2/1.
