Clean sheets

4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36% 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 42.8, Mariscal carries the 17th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga MX of 30, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Santos Laguna finished 18th of 18) — 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 (4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
