Clean sheets

3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 13 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 46.4, Ochoa carries the 5th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga MX of 14 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
