Clean sheets

1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 39.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.99 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.2, Guzmán carries the 16th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Primera A of 23. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
