The verdict

Virgil comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (18 vs 11), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.4) and better current form.

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

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