Output in context · HNK Gorica finished 8th of 10 · a relegation-threatened side
3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (8th of 10) 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 1 goal and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 79.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 25.7, Čabraja carries the 27th-highest potential of the full-backs in the HNL of 38, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (HNK Gorica finished 8th of 10) — 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 solid defensive volume (3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
