Question 1

Who has the stronger DEFCON rate: Diomande or Milenković?

Accepted Answer

Diomande is the stronger DEFCON profile at 13.85 actions per 90 against 10.33 for Milenković - a gap of 3.52 per 90. Over a 38-match season that difference works out to roughly 134 extra defensive contribution actions before any attacking upside is factored in.

Question 2

How do the raw defensive workloads of Diomande and Milenković compare?

Accepted Answer

Diomande has logged 14 combined clearances, blocks, interceptions and tackles across 91 minutes (13.8 per 90). Milenković has logged 31 across 270 minutes (10.3 per 90). Diomande earned the +2pt DEFCON bonus in 1 of 2 appearances this season; Milenković earned the +2pt DEFCON bonus in 2 of 3 appearances this season. Higher raw counts reflect a higher defensive workload; higher per-90 rates reflect efficiency at sustaining that workload.

Question 3

Does the Gameweek 6 fixture change the DEFCON case?

Accepted Answer

Diomande is away at Crystal Palace (FDR 3) and Milenković is away at Crystal Palace (FDR 3) in Gameweek 6. DEFCON output is action-based rather than result-based, so a tough fixture does not shrink the base rate the way it might reduce a clean sheet probability. That said, both players are more likely to see defensive volume in tougher matches - the DEFCON case can actually be marginally stronger against stronger opposition.

Question 4

Which defender should I pick for Gameweek 6 on DEFCON grounds?

Accepted Answer

At near-identical prices, Diomande is the cleaner DEFCON pick. The 3.52 per 90 edge is meaningful over the run of the season, and with no price advantage for Milenković the choice tips to Diomande for managers building around defensive contributions.
