The verdict

Slater comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (13 vs 12), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.0) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

Buy — Slater is one of the better MID options for the next 5 gameweeks.
