EA Sports added a new set of Marquee Matchups to FIFA 22 Ultimate Team today that you can complete by accessing the squad-building challenge (SBC) menu.

The Marquee Matchups are weekly challenges based on real soccer’s key games. EA selects some matches and creates SBCs to reward players with tradeable FUT packs. This week, it’s themed around countries from the Americas.

This type of SBC is different from the special player items. Each squad requires a different set of conditions to be met aside from the commonly known minimum rating and chemistry. An example is asking for some players from a specific league or club.

Each solution offers a different reward as well, ranging from a small prime mixed players pack to a prime electrum players pack. You’ll have until next Thursday, Feb. 3 to complete four squads: Canada vs. USA, Mexico vs. Costa Rica, Chile vs. Argentina, and Brazil vs. Paraguay.

The Mexico vs. Costa Rica squad, for example, asks for a series of conditions to be met. You’ll need to turn in a 75-rated squad with 75 chemistry minimum, a maximum of five players from the same league, at least three players from the same club, two different nationalities, and one player from both Mexico and Costa Rica. Those who complete it will be rewarded with a small prime gold players pack.

Here are all of this week’s conditions and rewards for each solution you’ll have to do to complete this Marquee Matchups SBC.
