The verdict

Egan comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (18 vs 3), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

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

Buy — Egan is one of the better DEF options for the next 5 gameweeks.
