The verdict

Cherki comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (22 vs 9), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and better current form.

Sell — the projection, fixtures or minutes do not support keeping Palacios.

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