FA Cup final top prop bets: Eze excites, De Bruyne the danger and Palace peril

Eberechi Eze over 0.5 shots on target - 11/20 

(BetMGM)

Eberechi Eze is hitting form at the perfect time for Crystal Palace.

The attacker has scored in each of his last four appearances and that run is underpinned by favourable metrics.

He is averaging 0.96 shots on target per 90 minutes in the Premier League, which improves to 1.02 in this season's FA Cup.

Eze has had at least one shot on target in seven of his last eight matches and this selection landed in all four of his cup appearances on route to the final.

Despite conceding just one goal in their last five games, Manchester City have given up 31 shots in that period and this offers encouragement that Eze, with his 48% shooting accuracy, can test the opposition goalkeeper.

In fact, Eze opened the scoring in last month's Premier League meeting between the teams as the Eagles managed eight shots, with three hitting the target, in a 5-2 Etihad loss.

Kevin De Bruyne over 0.5 shots on target - 10/13

Kevin De Bruyne will be eager to mark his final season as a City player with a trophy.

The Belgian has been rolling back the years of late and it's no surprise that his uptick has coincided with improved results.

He's hit the target 17 times from 36 shots in this season's Premier League and that rate improves to four from five in the FA Cup, which equates to 1.82 shots on target per 90 minutes.

There should be opportunities to let fly from range and De Bruyne was on top form when City beat Palace last month, managing two shots on target from six efforts.

Over 3.5 Crystal Palace corners - 21/20

Pep Guardiola will demand his team control the game and suffocate the life out of Palace, but the Eagles should be able to exploit gaps in the final third.

The likes of Eze, Ismailia Sarr, Jean Philippe-Mateta and Munoz have the pace to hurt City and should be able to win corners during their attacking forays.

Recent stats also look positive as Oliver Glasner's team won an average of 4.1 corners per game from their last 10 outings.

City conceded an average of 2.8 corners during the same period, but two recent victories were against relegated Leicester and Southampton so the number increases to 3.375 if they're scrubbed from calculations.

The selection landed in this season's Premier League meetings between the teams as Palace earned six corners in the 2-2 home draw and four in last month's 5-2 away defeat.

Daniel Munoz to be carded - 23/10 

(BetMGM)

He is renowned for his attacking exploits, but Daniel Munoz should be busy on the defensive front.

The Palace wing-back looks at risk of going in the book as he's set to face opposition players that win fouls for fun.

Jeremy Doku, Jack Grealish and Omar Marmoush have all been fouled more than 1.5 times per 90 minutes this season and Munoz is likely to face at least two of these players over the course of the match.

A couple of cheap fouls could see the Colombian earn a yellow.
