Look Sports Media – EA Sports FC 26 is here, and the Ultimate Team meta is already heating up. Forget those three-at-the-back formations; they’re looking weaker than ever. With fluid passing and tricky defending dominating the pitch, a clear frontrunner has emerged. But which formation reigns supreme? RBZL Gaming’s pro, Alfie "RedLac" Calder, spills the beans on his winning strategies, alongside insights into a surprisingly fun alternative.
What’s the best formation in EA FC 26? According to RedLac, who now teams up with the legendary Tekkz at RBZL, the 4-2-3-1 is the undisputed king. Leveraging the game’s fast-paced passing, he recommends setting both central defensive midfielders (CDMs) to "Deep-Lying Playmaker" for superior build-up play. The key, however, lies in the central attacking midfielder (CAM). Instead of the usual "Playmaker," RedLac opts for "Shadow Striker," providing crucial support to the lone striker. To bolster defense in this challenging iteration, he suggests keeping fullbacks on "Defend" to maintain defensive solidity. Struggling still? Switch to a 4-3-1-3 with both CDMs on "Ball Winning" instructions.

But what about fun? The game’s improved passing system has resurrected some forgotten formations. Enter the 4-1-2-1-2 (2), a top-tier "tiki-taka" formation. While defense remains crucial, this formation prioritizes a fast-paced, possession-based attack. The key is to maintain 33/33 chemistry and utilize a balanced build-up play style to encourage player runs. Fullbacks are set to "Versatile," allowing one to attack while the other provides defensive support. One central midfielder focuses on ball-winning, while the other drives playmaking. Finally, the CAM is set to "Playmaker" to link midfield and attack.
