It seems early in the year to be hosting the FA Cup final – many claim (including ourselves) that it should be played at the end of the season. However, the bookies care not and have rolled out some cracking betting offers for the afternoon. Generally they seem to heavily favour Man City to beat Wigan this afternoon and have focused their offers around this. Let’s go…
* Offer: Money Back if Wigan Lift the Cup

Bet Victor have confidence that Wigan won’t be able to pull a shock result today and are refunding selected bets if Wigan do actually win. This applies to correct Score, first/last goalscorer, scorecast & man of the match bets, up to the value of £50.

Paddy Power usually lead the way with offers but don’t seem to be supporting the FA Cup final so heavily this year. If Sergio Aguero scores the last goal in this match, Paddy Power will refund all losing first goalscorer, last goalscorer, correct score & scorecast singles. Compared to the other offers Bet Victor and Ladbrokes are running, it’s probably worth not doing this.

Ladbrokes.com have made some big changes to their betting offer for new customers. Previously, new customers could get a free bet up to the value of £50. Now, they are promoting their offer of “bet £10 and get £30” – but there is very little detail about on their website.
One big change is that you now have to use a promotion code. In order to be eligible for the offer, you must use the promo code “THREE10″. Once you have registered, and have used the code – here is how you get the free bets.
- Deposit and bet £10 on any sports event
- As soon as that bet has settled, you will receive a free £10 bet
- 7 days after, Ladbrokes will give you another free £10 bet
- A further 7 days later, Ladbrokes will give you one final free £10 bet.
So that’s a total of £30 in exchange for a £10 upfront bet. That’s pretty good. So in short, Ladbrokes have reduced the amount of the free bet, but now you have to deposit and bet considerably less to get more. Just make sure you use the promo code.

If you bet on a horse, but it finishes 2nd by less than 3 lengths then Blue Square will refund your stake as a free bet.

As soon as we got wind of this betting offer, we must admit we got a little excited. Straight to the point. If Ronaldo scores at any time during the 90 mins of the second leg of the Champions League against Manchester United, PaddyPower.com will refund all losing First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer, Correct Score & Scorecast singles. It applies to singles only placed before the game, but quite amazingly it’s up to £100. Let’s just recap on Ronaldo’s goal scoring record to put this betting offer in context:
- He scored his 300th club goal aged just 27
- He holds the record for the most goals scored in one season for Real Madrid
- He holds the record for most goals/per minute ratio in La Liga
- First player to score over 40 goals in two consecutive seasons in La Liga
- In 2012 he scored the most amount of goals for club and country (63)
Quite frankly Ronaldo is a goal scoring machine and has already raked up 24 in La Liga already this season. Paddy Power are presenting a very good offer here for punters and it’s no surprise they are supporting it with a TV advert. If you’re a new customer with Paddy Power, claim a free £50 bet.

Loïc Rémy snubbed a move to Newcastle at the last minute, favouring to sign for QPR. Critics have been cynical of the suggestion that the move was for footballing reasons, however one can’t deny that QPR have seriously invested in their team to try and secure Premiership football for next season. He is one of many players making their debut this afternoon, and Ladbrokes have a betting offer for the game.
If Remy scores either the first or last goal of the game, Ladbrokes.com will refund first goal scorer bets up to the value £25 as a free bet. Bets in-play do not count, and additionally the free bet refunded must be used in first goal scorer markets. If you’re a new customer, you’ll be eligible for a free £50 bet but note that bets made with free bets do qualify for this offer.

Ladbrokes have offers on the two fixtures today with Premiership teams facing each other. Man City travel to Stoke. Stoke, who made it to the FA Cup final two years ago, only to lose, have had their manager Tony Pulis commenting on that game. Pulis has yet to watch to watch the game on DVD, adding “I just couldn’t bring myself to do it”. Of course Man City have since then have only strengthened their squad, and if you want to bet on the likelihood of one of their new additions scoring, then Ladbrokes.com have a betting offer for you.
If Edin Dzeko scores the 1st or last goal of the game, Ladbrokes will refund losing 1st goalscorer bets, as another free bet up to the value of £25. For the latter kick off at 5:30pm, Man Utd vs Fulham, Ladbrokes are doing exactly the same but with Danny Welbeck.

It’s the return of the FA Cup this weekend with 12 fixtures today. It would take some doing to match the upset result from last night’s game when Villa lost to Millwall, compounding their recent run of poor form. For today’s games though, PaddyPower.com are running a special betting offers for a football accumulator. Important to note that the offer only applies to ‘both teams to score’, that is, you are betting on whether both teams will score or not in the game.
Place a 5 game accumulator or more, and should one of your selections not come in, Paddy Power will refund your losing bet, up to the value of £100. For details on this offer, and to claim a £50 free bet if you’re a new customer, click here.
