Doc’s captain recommendations for Week 24’s midweek games turned out reasonably well. Agüero (5 points) and Rooney (10 points) impressed, but a Coloccini knee to the back spoiled Lukaku’s chances to get on the scoresheet (1 point).

The results of Gameweek 24’s shot predictions are below. The bars show shot prediction ranges, while the circles represent actual team shot totals. The biggest outlier here were Manchester City who significantly underperformed in the shots department. Could this be a sign that City will struggle to create in De Bruyne’s absence? Time will tell.

Predicting foward, below are the shot predictions for Gameweek 25. Liverpool are standout shots favorites this week, with Southampton, Man City, and Spurs the next-best picks.

Keeping these predictions in mind, here are Doc’s Captain Picks for Gameweek 25:

Roberto Firmino: He hasn’t been the model of consistency this season, but Liverpool have a great home fixture against Sunderland. Liverpool are predicted to take over twenty shots, and Firmino has scored four in his last four Premier League starts. These make Firmino quite the tempting captain pick.

Harry Kane: The young Englishman is full of confidence after scoring twice at Norwich and has a good chance of adding to his tally at home against Watford. He’s got four in his last three, but Watford’s defense has shown its resolve on more than one occasion this season.

Sergio Agüero: It’s impossible to leave the Argentine striker off this list given his current goalscoring form. Man City host Leicester on Saturday, with the Citizens predicted to take more than fifteen shots. Leicester have recorded back-to-back clean sheets, but Agüero will hope to end that streak.
