The verdict

Giles comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (16 vs 15), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

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

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