Tottenham Hotspur welcome Crystal Palace to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to build on their recent improvement after recording back-to-back Premier League victories over Coventry City and Chelsea.
Spurs have scored five goals across those two league matches, while Palace have struggled for consistency, losing three of their last five games in all competitions, with question marks surrounding the future of manager Pierre Sage.
There could be value in the player markets, and one statistic that stands out concerns Mohammed Kudus, who could be worth backing to register at least two shots on target against the visitors.
Mohammed Kudus 7/2 to have over 1.5 shots target

The Tottenham winger has registered nine shots across his seven Premier League appearances this season, with eight of those coming in his last five matches.
However, his nine shots this season do not necessarily translate into shots on target, so his match-by-match record in that specific category will be key to determining whether the 7/2 odds offer genuine value.
That recent involvement suggests he is becoming an increasingly active presence in the final third as he looks to establish himself as a regular starter following a serious injury last season.
Although the Ghanaian is yet to score in the league this season, he has provided two assists, demonstrating his ability to influence Spurs' attacking play even when he is not finding the back of the net himself.
The odds imply a probability of 22.2%, meaning Kudus would need to record at least two shots on target in more than one in five matches for the bet to represent value over the long term.
His recent shooting numbers provide a starting point for considering the selection, although his total shots do not necessarily indicate how often he hits the target.
Crystal Palace could offer opportunities
Palace's defensive numbers provide further encouragement, with the Eagles allowing 16.8 shots per Premier League match.
That could give Kudus opportunities to test the visitors' defence, particularly if Spurs dominate possession and create sustained pressure in the attacking third.
With Spurs having scored eight goals across their last four Premier League matches, Kudus should have opportunities to contribute in the final third.
Verdict: Kudus to record at least two shots on target at 7/2 is an option worth considering, provided he is named in the starting line-up and the price remains available before kick-off. Having started and impressed against Chelsea last weekend, the Spurs number 20 could be in line to start again on Saturday evening.
