The verdict

Isak comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (26 vs 25), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.6) and better current form.

Buy — Isak is one of the better FWD options for the next 5 gameweeks.

Hold — Nketiah is fine to keep, but there is no urgent case to bring him in.
