Here are all the requirements FIFA 23 players need to meet while building the squad to complete the SBC.

  • Number of players in the squad: Exactly 11
  • Number of players in the squad with at least 85 overall rating: Minimum of 3
  • Players from Team of Week (with in-form upgrades) in the squad: Minimum of 1

Estimated cost: 50,000 - 55,000 FUT coins across platforms


Is SBC worth it?

While the challenge is not that difficult in terms of complexity, building a squad from scratch will require a hefty sum of 52,500 coins per the current market rate. This is due to inflated fodder prices in the FIFA 23 transfer market, meaning only using disposable fodder can effectively mitigate the price of the SBC.

Players looking to grind the 82+ x10 Upgrade SBC may also have to wait a while to see if the price of buying fodder goes down in the two remaining days of the challenge. The most expensive card in the squad will be the TOTW card, which can drastically inflate the price.

At the time of writing, the Ricardo Horta in-form upgrade card is one of the cheapest options on the market, costing around 14.5K. While building the rest of the squad, players should not experience many complications as there are no restrictions on the cards' nationality, nor are there any chemistry requirements.

Using three cards with 85 overall is also a substantial part of the price tag, meaning players should ideally use cards from their FIFA 23 clubs wherever possible to mitigate the price.

As for rewards, the pack of cards with a guaranteed 83+ overall rating has the potential to yield many good cards. Thus, FIFA 23 players able to afford the SBC should try grinding along with the other active repeatable challenges.
