Barnet v York City Prediction: Tshimanga looks good at 5/4

Second-placed Barnet and York City, in fifth, lock horns at The Hive in what has the smell of a League Two promotion tussle about it.

The Bees, who finished just two points outside the play-offs last season, have been hard to beat once again under impressive boss Dean Brennan.

And the Minstermen, who went up in the spring as champions of the National League, have had no difficulty adapting to life back in the Football League and have back-to-back promotions on their to-do list this term.

Alternative Bet - Barnet or Draw - Double Chance & Goals range - 2-5 @ 4/5

Barnet v York City

Barnet v York City Prediction

Best Bet: Kabongo Tshimanga to score anytime @ 5/4

Kabongo Tshimanga is the hottest scoring property in League Two at the moment and can continue his sizzling streak against York in what should be a decent encounter.

Tshimanga scored his 10th goal of the season in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Oldham Athletic, the fifth game in a row in which he has found the back of the net.

And don't go thinking the well-travelled Congolese star is a flash in the pan - he has scored goals pretty much wherever he has gone and signed off last term with seven goals in eight for the Bees.

Alternative Bet: Barnet or Draw - Double Chance & Goals range - 2-5 @ 4/5

Every single one of York's matches in all competitions so far this season has produced between two and five goals, as have 12 of the Bees’ 14 fixtures.

Of the 15 games that the Minstermen have played, they have failed to win 10 of them, while Barnet have only been beaten by Swindon Town - 2-1 in League Two a week ago.
