- Form: Thiago is the in-form pick at 6.3 vs 0.3. Solid recent returns.
- Fixtures: Near-identical difficulty ahead (3.6 vs 3.4). Fixtures won't separate them.
- Value: Thiago returns 23.0 points per £1m vs Ekitiké's 13.7. Thiago is the better value pick, and the £1.8m price gap frees budget for upgrades elsewhere.
- Goal threat: Thiago has more goal involvements (22 vs 15 G+A). Expected stats also back Thiago on xG.
- Transfer trend: Thiago has stronger transfer momentum (+32,129 net vs -121,230). The crowd is moving but no price change is imminent.
