The verdict

Saka comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (26 vs 17), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and a stronger underlying profile.

Buy — Gomez is one of the better MID options for the next 5 gameweeks.

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