The verdict

Justin comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (37 vs 9), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.8) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

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