Bulls Drift In Relegation Betting

The Bulls are as long as 3/1 now to be relegated from the Football League.

Dagenham are best-priced Even money for the drop. After back-to-back wins over Barnet and Gillingham, they have earned just one point from nine to leave them back in the bottom two. Saturday's loss to Crewe was highlighted by an own goal from a horrendous miskick by keeper Chris Lewington as he attempted to clear a backpass.

Northampton are 11/8. They have earned five points from Aidy Boothroyd's eight games in charge. If those games had ended at half time they would have had 15 extra points, but they have scored just one second-half goal in defending six half time leads in those eight games.

Plymouth are 7/5 and rapidly picking up the crown as comeback kings. Four times in recent matches they have scored late goals to earn points, two of them from the penalty spot, turning two points into eight.

Bottom of the form table with the Cobblers are Macclesfield and Aldershot, both currently 12/1 for the drop. Saturday's goalless draw with Accrington was the Shots' sixth straight match without scoring, and they have scored more than once in just six of 25 games this term. The Silkmen are currently on a run of three straight losses, and have scored just three times in their last seven matches.
