Clean sheets

5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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. 5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.6% 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 31.4, Pališčák carries the 2nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super Liga of 30 — though on just 19 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
