The verdict

Mendy comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (16 vs 6), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and better current form.

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

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