The verdict

Boscagli comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (18 vs 3), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

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

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