The verdict

Groß comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (23 vs 4), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.4) and better current form.

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

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