Kroupi has been the most clinical player in the Premier League this season with seven goals across just eight starts, working out to a goal every 92 minutes in the Premier League. He’s had 19 shots across these eight starts (2.65 per 90) and is generously priced to have a few shots in this clash.

Kroupi’s recent record may be off putting if you look at his hit rate across the last five matches, but it’s worth noting that Kroupi is frequently moved around by Andoni Iraola - so this recent record isn’t truly reflective of Kroupi’s true shot potential.

Kroupi’s most recent full 90 minute cameo came against Newcastle in the FA Cup, which was a contest that saw the young striker have four shots - three of which managed to find the target. He plays for a Bournemouth side that have dropped off a little this season, but still create chances regularly.

Only Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United have had more shots in the Premier League this season than Bournemouth (300 - 13.6 per game). This rises slightly when Bournemouth are playing at the Vitality Stadium, so we can expect the Cherries to provide regular service to the likes of Evanilson and Kroupi.

Kroupi netted 22 goals across his 23 starts in Ligue 2 last season to earn this move to the Premier League with the 19 year old having 87 shots across these appearances (4.05 per 90). The Premier League is obviously a step up from this level, but this does show the potential shot volume we could see from Kroupi when he inevitably holds down a starting spot in the side.

Kroupi has scored against Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United already this season so he is a player that doesn’t shy away from the big occasions which is a trait that can aid him in getting a few shots away in this clash. 

There is excellent value with this selection when backing with Bet365, the exact same angle is priced as low as 1.1 with other major bookmakers.
