Ladbrokes favour Arsenal for Carling Cup

Arsenal are 11/10 to win the Carling Cup after their extra-time victory over Tottenham, Ladbrokes said last night.

The Gunners will face 4/6 favourites Chelsea in Cardiff after an extra-time strike from Jeremie Aliadiere and an own goal ended Spurs' comeback hopes.

In the Premiership the betting remains unchanged at the top following comfortable wins for leaders Manchester United and Chelsea, but Liverpool are back out to 25/1

At the bottom, Charlton are still 1/4 to be relegated despite scraping a draw against Bolton Wanderers at the Reebok Stadium

Magic Sign Spokesman Robin Hutchison: "Chelsea and United's wins were shockers - but we'd resigned ourselves to that before kick off.

"The draw in 90 minutes at the Emirates went a long way to cheering us up then punters won a bit back in extra-time. It was definitely their night rather than ours."
