Early Odds Make Luton Town Favourites

Last updated : 27 May 2014 By County Ground

After a number of near-misses in the Conference, veteran manager John Still guided Luton to the title with something to spare this season and Still's knowledge of League Two from his time with Dagenham & Redbridge together with the backing of some large Kenilworth Road crowds means the bookmakers feel they can shine.

The next two teams in the betting both struggled for large parts of the 2013/14 campaign but Bury and Portsmouth finished strongly to raise hopes for next time around.

Of the relegated teams, Stevenage are slightly more fancied than Shrewsbury, Carlisle United or Tranmere Rovers while Northampton Town's early odds vary from 12/1 to 25/1 to lift the title.
