4 clean sheets in 17 appearances (24% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 53.1% 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 41.2, Baier carries the 8th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Bundesliga of 15, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FC BW Linz finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
