- Form: Pickford is the in-form pick at 2.7 vs 1. Neither is on fire right now.
- Fixtures: Near-identical difficulty ahead (2.4 vs 2.6). Fixtures won't separate them.
- Value: Raya returns 21.8 points per £1m vs Pickford's 22.7. Pickford is the better value pick.
- Goal threat: Level on goal involvements (0 G+A each).
- Transfer trend: Raya has stronger transfer momentum (+7,881 net vs 7,109). The crowd is moving but no price change is imminent.
