Clean sheets

4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 6 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 71.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.41 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.4/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 56.4, Mittelstädt carries the 32nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Bundesliga of 50. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
