Premier League prop bets for Matchday 19: Bet on Dejan Kulusevski to perform for Tottenham

Two players find their way into this week's Premier League prop bets.

The pregame narrative: Dejan Kulusevski has been in form for Tottenham and is a solid bet to record a shot on target against Brighton on Thursday. Before that, I'm looking for Mo Salah to score against Burnley on Boxing Day.

EPL oddsas of 3:00 p.m. ET 12/24/2023.

Premier League prop bets

Best Bet: Kulusevski over 0.5 SOT (-132)

This is a decent amount of juice to contend with but I believe it's well worth the squeeze.

Kulusevski has registered a shot on target in five of his last six Premier League games and he has five in his last three.

The Swedish forward has 14 shots on the season and has been a much larger factor in the Spurs' offence since James Maddison and Micky van de Ven went down with injuries.

He still plays second fiddle to Heung-Min Son but one SOT isn't asking for much at all.

Brighton is an above-average defensive team but it still allows 3.94 SOT/90 and Kylusevski has the second-most SOT among all active Spurs players (14).

The Seagulls also aren't in top form right now with just one win in their last five EPL fixtures (1-3-1).

Key stat: Kulusevski has seven shots on target in his last six games.

Quick pick

Salah to score (-120): Salah is giving Haaland a serious run for the Golden Boot. Liverpool's striker has 12 goals in 18 Premier League appearances and has scored in three of his past four.

That included the Reds' lone goal in a crucial 1-1 tie against Arsenal on Dec. 23.

He's also been shooting the ball at a rapid pace. Salah has 16 shot attempts in his last five games and gets to go up against Burnley, which has allowed 36 goals, the second-most in the EPL.

Burnley is also allowing 5.61 shots on target per 90, which is second-to-last.
