Crawley and Wimbledon scrap for top spot
There's very little separating the top six in the Blue Square Premier. Crawley Town currently sit on top of the pile with 26 points from their first 12 games, but they're being chased hard by AFC Wimbledon who are only a point behind on 25 and Fleetwood Town, who've got 24 points.
Crawley are in great form at the moment, with four wins from their last five, but will be aware that if they drop any points at the weekend against Kidderminster they could slip down to third.
Luton, who sit in sixth, are still the [3.7] favourites to claim the title with Crawley just behind at [3.75] and AFC Wimbledon a little further back at [7.6].
Last season's losing play-off finalists York City have not started the season well, finding themselves back in 12th place, one spot above Rushden & Diamonds, who also failed in the play-offs.
Newly-promoted Bath City are still getting used to things, with only two wins so far they host Cambridge United this weekend with odds of [5.3] available on them claiming their third home win of the season.
Terminal strugglers Forest Green Rovers are bumping along near the bottom in 22nd place, with only Histon and cash-strapped Altrincham below them. They travel to AFC Wimbledon this weekend and are rated at [6.8] to pull off a surprise win.
Will the early leaders last the distance? Rate their chances in the box below....
