The verdict

Bijol comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (40 vs 6), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 2.8) and better current form.

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

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