Niklas Steffen

Steffen's most valuable trait right now is availability and a clear starting role; he's been Thun's regular keeper through the summer qualifiers and should be in the Starting XI, logging an average of 78 minutes per game with four appearances in the last 5 game weeks and 13 appearances in the last 15 game weeks. He also brings a tidy shot-stopping profile into the tie, posting roughly a 69 to 70 percent save rate and six clean sheets this past season, which gives him a dependable floor and explains why the Sorare Edge projection (68.6) sees upside versus Sorare's own 45.0 with medium model confidence. The ceiling is straightforward to size though, because Víkingur Reykjavík arrive firing domestically, averaging over three goals scored per league game while conceding around 0.75, so Steffen's best-case hinges on a busy night of saves at the Stockhorn Arena rather than an easy shutout.
