Scottish Premiership player totals for the 2026/27 season, 212 players listed. Per 90 figures need at least 180 minutes played.

What the interceptions table tells you

An interception is when a player reads a pass and cuts it out before it reaches an opponent. It rewards anticipation and positioning, and it happens before any challenge is needed.

Centre backs and defensive midfielders lead because they sit in the lanes opponents try to pass through. A full back who steps in to cut out a cross gets credit too.

Teams that defend deep and face many forward passes will record more, so compare players in similar roles. Per 90 helps with different minutes.
