The verdict

McBurnie comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (16 vs 14), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

Buy — McBurnie is one of the better FWD options for the next 5 gameweeks.

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