23rd Apr 2017 | FA Cup

Red Hot Chilean Back At Wembley

Alexis Sanchez has scored five goals in his four previous appearances at Wembley. His goal on Monday night could spark a run again too.

Ladbrokes are offering money back as a free bet on selected markets if today’s FA Cup semi-final is level after 90 minutes. Despite Arsenal’s recent woes, this offer gives us some very credible insurance.

One included market is ‘First Goalscorer’ and it feels like a straight choice between Sergio Aguero and Alexis Sanchez. The City striker is 7/2 to break the deadlock with Ladbrokes and that’s hard to argue with after a run of 11 goals in 11 games.

The Argentina star is looking close to his best again after a season disrupted more by suspensions than injury for once.

At a bigger price of 6/1 the alternative is Sanchez who has found the net 22 times for the Gunners in 2016-17. His form is generally worse, but a first goal in four games on Monday night might get him back on track.


It’s a toss-up given the price disparity but I’ll favour the Chilean based on his five goals in four previous outings at Wembley.

*Ladbrokes are offering refunds on losing bets (as free bets) if the match ends as a draw after 90 minutes, up to £25. The inclusive markets are Correct Score, HT/FT & First Goalscorer. T&Cs apply.
