The verdict

Ayari comes out ahead on the five-gameweek projection (17 vs 15), largely because of the fixture run (average difficulty 3.2) and a stronger underlying profile.

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

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