We examine Alexis Sanchezs importance to Arsenal ahead of their Super Sunday clash with Premier League leaders Leicester City...Leicester will not be looking forward to another meeting with Alexis Sanchez. The Chileans brilliant hat-trick inspired Arsenal to their emphatic 5-2 win at the King Power Stadium in September, and he will be central to their hopes of closing the gap on Claudio Ranieiris side on Sunday.Sanchezs goals that afternoon were his first of the season after an eight-game scoreless run, and Arsene Wenger declared him back at his best in his post-match press conference. The Arsenal manager was vindicated as the 27-year-old embarked on a run of 10 goals in six games for club and country, including a double in the Gunners 3-0 win over Manchester United. Alexis Sanchez scored his first Arsenal hat-trick against Leicester The season has taken plenty of twists and turns since then, but there are parallels between the two encounters for Sanchez, who is once again bidding to rediscover his best form. He did find the net in Arsenals recent FA Cup win over Burnley, but has gone eight league games without scoring - a drought punctuated by a two-month injury lay-off between November and January. Arsenal to outfox them? The story of Arsenals 5-2 win over leaders Leicester in September. Can they repeat it? Sanchez struggled to make an impact in Arsenals 2-0 win over Bournemouth on Sunday, but there have been encouraging signs since he returned to the side with a lively cameo in their 1-0 defeat by Chelsea on January 24, and Wenger saw his time out as a blessing in disguise after a gruelling summer of Copa America duty with Chile. Alexis Sanchez made his first appearance since November against Chelsea Hes had a long rest now, the Arsenal manager said after Sanchez struck the winning goal against Burnley. When he got injured, you could see signs of fatigue but two months rest I think is a good winter break.The benefits were certainly plain to see against Southampton, who somehow escaped the Emirates Stadium with a goalless draw despite dazzling displays by Sanchez and Mesut Ozil. Hes one of the players who is difficult to stop because they have such high qualities, Ronald Koeman said of Sanchez. Hes fast, and technically, hes perfect. Ramsey: Leicester remarkable Arsenal will need to be right on it to slow Leicesters title charge, says Aaron Ramsey. Sanchezs elite technical quality is only half of what he brings. His tireless, all-action playing style rubs off on his team-mates, and Wenger has talked up his leadership, too. Hes a guy who likes big games, and for me that is the most important thing in a big player, he once said. Its a kind of leadership on the pitch. He does not say out of the game: I want to do this, I want to do that, but on the pitch hes a leader.

He is the guy who can change the course of a game, Sky Sports pundit Thierry Henry said earlier this season. I love the way he plays. He plays with his heart and I know the fans love that about him. When you have a guy like Alexis Sanchez, it is the X-factor. Sanchez was instrumental in Arsenals win over Leicester earlier in the season It could be argued that Ozil - with his four goals and 16 assists in 23 Premier League appearances - is even more important to Arsenals title aspirations, but he is at his most effective alongside Sanchez. Against Southampton and Bournemouth the duo exchanged more passes than anyone else on the pitch, and it is no coincidence that they were two of Ozils finest displays this season. Its also notable how much the German has improved since Sanchez joined him at the Emirates - and hes not the only one. Were lucky to have Alexis with us - Ive always said that, said Santi Cazorla in November. Hes one of the best players in the world. Playing alongside Alexis is a privilege and its really easy to understand him on the pitch.

He is first for shots and dribbles per game in the Premier League, second for goals scored and third for chances created per game behind Ozil and Cazorla.Sanchezs high-risk style means he also loses possession more frequently than any of his team-mates (18.5 times per game on average), but the rewards speak for themselves. If youre an Arsenal fan, we were all waiting for that type of match-winner, added Henry. City bottom of top-six table But where do Arsenal and Leicester rank? After recharging his batteries and working his way back to full fitness, Arsenal can expect an even greater contribution from Sanchez in the final months of the season. A repeat of his last performance against Leicester would be a perfect way to start.Watch Arsenal v Leicester live on Sky Sports 1HD from 11.30am on SundayAlso See:Arsenal to outfox them?Who has run the furthest?Who has the best defence?City bottom of top-six tableRed Schoendienst Jersey .

Had no right to do what she did that day after pulling for the first half of the race, and looks set to peak at Flemington. Compares more than favourably with Ethereal, who won both races as a four-year-old mare in 2001, and should have no problems with the trip if she settles better. Can repel the foreign invasion and give outstanding young trainer Ciaron Maher his first Melbourne Cup win.Almandin each-way @ $15 with UBETLooks good odds for a horse on an upward spiral and who is yet to hit the ceiling in this country. Won The Bart Cummings in the style of a galloper wanting the two miles of Tuesdays race and looks really well in with just 52kg. Hard to see this one not fighting out the finish.Gallante Top 10 @ $2.40 with UBETThe forgotten horse after his forgivable Moonee Valley Cup flop. Rewind two weeks and this Sydney Cup winner was considered one of the leading chances in the Melbourne Cup, so if youre a fan youre getting a huge price. Would actually be keen on his chances if there was rain about. Even without it, this galloper can acquit himself well, and a top-10 finish looks within his grasp.Over the OddsBig Orange @ $16 with UBETHas stacks going for him this year - in form, well drawn, will appreciate the trip and the going, and looks a better horse than the one who ran fifth in the race last year. Looks a good each-way bet.Secret Number @ $35 with UBETHas had the local sighter courtesy of last years second placing in the Queen Elizabeth at Flemington. Has had just one run since and patently has been set for this race. Theres a chance he isnt good enough, but at big odds Secret Number is worth an each-way ticket to find out.Under the OddsHartnell @ $6 with UBETThe clear pick on form - has dispatched of Jameka are chased home Winx in his past ttwo starts - but this might be a bridge too far.dddddddddddd Did beat all bar the champ in the Cox Plate, but would have liked to see more from a Melbourne Cup perspective than a whacking-away eight-length defeat. Also wonder if two miles is really his go. On the balance, think hes underpriced and worth opposing.ExoticsTrifecta: 12,17 / 1,4,9,10,12,17,20,21 / 1,4,5,8,9,10,12,13,17,18,20,21 ?Happy to stand out Jameka and Almandin as the two winning hopes, with some value selections in behind. Exotics always pay well on this race and there should be value in any of the above combinations.Elsewhere on the Flemington CardBest BetRace 3, No.18 Super Haze @ $6 with UBET ?A really progressive stayer who is in excellent form this prep, having won successive races at Warrnambool and Geelong -- the latter in a good race jumping from 1700m to 2400m. Peaks now fourth up and will relish the 2800m of Tuesdays race. Will win here, and dont be surprised to see him lining up in a better race on the same day next year.Next BestRace 8, No.17 Plot The Course @ $8 with UBET?Has promised much for some time and is now delivering. Good first-up behind Hes Our Rokkii, better next time when unlucky behind Mr Individual, and better again when overcoming difficulties to beat Pilote Dessai at Caulfield. Peaks fourth-up over 1800m and remember he ran very well when splitting Berisha and Scherzoso over track and distance on Oaks day last year. Has plenty of upside and will be hard to hold out provided he gets a crack at them from the inside alley.Multi of the DayFlemington Race 2, No.11 Model Dragon - PLACE @ $1.75Flemington Race 3, No.18 Super Haze - PLACE @ $2.15Flemington Race 4, No.3 Demonstrate - PLACE @ $1.34Flemington Race 8, No.17 Plot The Course - PLACE @ $2.75Multi price: $13.86 with UBET ' ' '
