EA also added an 85-rated version of Leandro Trossard from Brighton. They will face each other in the World Cup on Dec. 1 in the Belgium vs. Croatia match. The player on the winning team will receive a +2 overall in-game upgrade.
When comparing this Showdown version to Kovačić’s original 84-rated gold version, the devs increased his Shooting (+8), Pace (+8), Physical (+5), Defending (+5), Passing (+1), and Dribbling (+1).
We recommend applying the shadow chemistry style when using this card in your team to boost Kovačić’s Pace (+8) and Defending (+7), raising them to 86 and 83 respectively.
To complete this Showdown SBC, players will have to complete two different segments. The Top Form solution asks for an 82-rated squad with at least one TOTW (Inform) card. The Premier League squad must be an 84-rated team with no less than a player from the Premier League.
Building both squads from scratch will cost you from around 69,950 to 80,000 FUT coins across the available platforms. You’ll also receive two rare gold players packs and one gold players pack for completing each squad.
The SBC will be available until the Belgium vs. Croatia match is over, so you have about two days to complete these two squads and even craft some cards to spend fewer FUT coins.
