Data Labels Position Line chart

Hi All,


So, we are using a line chart to show a yearly trend.
2025 and 2026 are the 2 lines which we are plotting in the line chart.
There is an issue in the position of data labels.

BLUE LINE->2026
GREY LINE->2025

The requirement is that lower values should come below the line and higher value should come above the line.
For example, let's consider Week 2 ,27.7 should come below and 29.2 should come above the line. 
To keep it simple, it should be opposite to how it is shown in this picture.
I can achieve this by adjusting data label position, I can keep 2026 line  as Under and 2025 as Above.
But, then if we consider Week 5, the value of 2026 is more than 2025 in this week.
Since I have kept 2026 as under, 42.3 will come below and 39.8 will come above.
I have tried all combinations in modifying the data labels position and I have tried Auto position as well.
Atleast in one of the weeks, the label position always gets misplaced.
Any suggestions on this?

Week 1->21.415.8
Week 2->29.227.7
Week 3->34.233.6
Week 4->36.738.2
Week 5->39.842.3
