Zeki Çelik

Celik registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and four interceptions and won two of three tackles in Sunday's 2-0 win against Lazio.

Analysis: Celik played most of the game as a center-back after Evan N'Dicka (thigh) subbed off and contributed to a respectable defensive effort, setting a new season high in interceptions. He has recorded at least one tackle in eight appearances in a row, racking up 19 (12 won) and adding eight interceptions, 20 crosses (five accurate) and nine key passes during that stretch, with two clean sheets. Instead, he snapped a six-match string with one or more clearances in this one.

Busy defensively versus Fiorentina

Celik (thigh) won three of five tackles and had seven clearances, one interception and one off-target shot in Monday's 4-0 victory over Fiorentina.

Analysis: Celik played the whole game despite being banged up and stood out in the back, matching his season highs in tackles and clearances, while he wasn't involved in the final third, ending a seven-match streak with at least one cross. He has posted at least one tackle in his last six displays, amassing 17 (nine won), notching seven key passes, 19 deliveries (five accurate) and four shots (two on target) over that span. Furthermore, this marked his fifth straight display with one or more clearances (14 total).
