Clean sheets

1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 11 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 16) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.4% 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 28.9, Høyland carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 1. Division of 32 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
