For anyone who is interested, I've made a script that calculates the goal targets each week automatically. Ignore this if you're not interested.

If you put in the average number of goals, assists, etc. that we've had in the game and then the actual goals per team (in the premier league), then it will give you the goal targets for the following week. I've put all penalty points under "Average Def Conceded" to make easier.
You can work out the averages of each thing from the league standings page, but I've done it already for next week, shown below:
Average Goals: 1.5
Average Assists: 1.21
Average GK Conceded: 1.02
Average Def Conceded: 4.58 (including penalty points)
Goals Per Team: 1.22 (I get from the page
here if you scroll down to where it says goal p. match)
Thought I'd share this to make goal targets seem less arbitrary. This has always been how they are calculated since our first week 2 and a bit years ago, although in the past I usually guessed at what I expected the goals per team figure to be and earlier in the season I wasn't updating it every week.
Just to add, the script actually makes 23,100+ calculations and does so in the blink of an eye, which blows my mind a little.
