B. van Hoeven is a 26-year-old central midfielder at Livingston, rated 30.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 76th of 104 on scout potential in the Premiership. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (38.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.08 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hoeven.

Judged on this season alone, Hoeven graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 13th of 18 of the 18 central midfielders in the Premiership, on 0 goals, 4 assists and 3.082 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 19). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 13th of 18 of the 18 central midfielders in the Premiership. At 26 Hoeven is in his prime years, and a market index of 7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.31 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.8, Hoeven carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premiership of 18, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Livingston finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
