Get 50/1 on a goal to be scored in the Carabao Cup final with Spreadex (Arsenal vs Man City)

Mar 20, 2026 - 15:45

The Premier League’s top two – Arsenal and Manchester City – meet at Wembley on Sunday to contest the first major silverware of the season.

After crashing out of the Champions League this week, City will be desperate to avoid another trophyless campaign, while Mikel Arteta is seeking his first major honour since the 2020 FA Cup.

In preparation for Sunday’s titan-clash final, Spreadex are offering new customers the chance to back a goal being scored at massively enhanced odds. Place a £1 bet on Over 0.5 Goals in Sunday’s final, and if a goal is scored in normal time, you can net £50 in free Bet-Builder bets – effectively claiming odds of 50/1 on the outcome.

Both sides have been potent in front of goal in this competition – City booked their place with a dominant 5-1 aggregate win over holders Newcastle, while Arsenal ended a run of four consecutive semi-final defeats by beating Chelsea 4-2. This is also Arsenal’s first domestic cup final since that 2020 FA Cup triumph.

The pair are due to meet again at the Etihad but in their most recent encounter at the Emirates, Gabriel Martinelli’s stoppage-time equaliser cancelled out Erling Haaland’s opener in a 1-1 draw. Arsenal enter the final nine points clear of City in the Premier League table, though Pep Guardiola’s side have a game in hand. Remarkably, City have failed to beat Arsenal in their last five meetings across all competitions.

Score even more value with Spreadex

New customers can sign up, place a £1 cash bet on Over 0.5 Goals in Arsenal vs Man City (normal time only). The bet will be booked at the normal market price, if it wins, you’ll receive your stake plus winnings plus £50 in free football Bet-Builder bets, paid as 10 x £5 tokens credited daily. Free bets are valid for 28 days.

That’s a perfect way to add extra value to the first major final of the season, with a goal almost certain and free bets to use across the rest of the campaign.

Can City maintain their Emirates dominance?

These two also met in the 2018 final, with Man City winning 3-0. Arsenal, however, have since turned the tide, unbeaten now in their last five meetings with Guardiola’s side. The midfield duel between Declan Rice and Rodri will be key, while Bukayo Saka’s battle with whoever starts at left-back (most likely Rayan Aït-Nouri) could decide the outcome.

Arsenal will be without Mikel Merino (foot surgery), while City miss Josko Gvardiol. James Trafford could get a look-in to start in goal for City after his heroics in the semi-final.

Over 0.5 Goals
Both Teams to Score

Every single league meeting between these sides since 2017 has produced at least one goal. Both teams have scored in 70% of their Premier League encounters, and with silverware on the line, an open game is all but guaranteed.

Backing a goal to be scored is as close to a certainty as you’ll find, and the 50/1 enhanced price makes it a no-brainer.e and up top – namely Nordi Mukiele, Reinildo and Brian Brobbey.
