Form your Best Team

Build the best team you can from the best available players in your club. Remember that chemistry is important in a FUT game. It is also important to have a squad with high team rating, but what more important is, is your gameplay skill.

Your goalie, defenders, midfielders and forwards should be the best of your club and have most chemistry rating when they are in your starting 11.

  • Possess the ball and dominate the game
  • Turn the ball possession into opportunities
  • Try to score any scoring opportunity
  • Prevent losing the ball and try to get it back if you did
  • Avoid any silly mistakes

Mentally Prepare Yourself for a Win

It all begins in your head, you’re going to a game to win it not to lose it. So, you should see yourself being capable to win any matches. On the loading screen before going to a FUT Champs match you can see your opponents squad and their formation. This might make you disappointed or confident as you can see their Team Rating and their players are better than yours, but again, having the best players does not guarantee a win.

Do a short analysis by scanning your opponent’s team. Take it in the way that you are going to beat them and consider what you need to do. For example, if your opponent’s forward is Sadio ManĂ© with 94 pace, his marker needs to run fast and do short tackles on him. This will help you get prepared mentally before you start the match.

Be always hopeful and don’t lose your hope even when you are behind. Remember it’s just a game and you are playing it for fun. Losing a match is not the end of the world. You can learn from a loss a lot. Even when you are being thrashed by your opponent and there is no hope, just concentrate on learning and what you could do next time to prevent such mistakes. This makes you mentally stronger.

Do not rush. Keep this in mind that similar to chess, playing football is more about strategies and tactics. You get 90 minutes to play and perform your tactics. A goal happens within a few seconds so you don’t really need to rush and lose your mind.


Learn from your Opponent

Try to learn from your opponent, no matter how good or bad their gameplay. Your opponent reacts to your moves and tactics, analyse how they react and how they try to break through your defence. Your opponent will show you how vulnerable your tactics are.

If your opponent is better than you, learn from them by scanning their gameplay and guessing which button and moves they are using to beat you. Pay attention to their tactics and strategies.
