The verdict
Rice comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (16 vs 12), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and a stronger underlying profile.
Buy — Ampadu is one of the better MID options for the next 5 gameweeks.
Hold — Rice is fine to keep, but there is no urgent case to bring him in.
