The verdict
Palmer comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (21 vs 15), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and better current form.
Buy — Palmer is one of the better MID options for the next 5 gameweeks.
Hold — Barnes is fine to keep, but there is no urgent case to bring him in.
