The verdict

Gomez comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (15 vs 13), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.4) and better current form.

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

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