EA FC 26 Champions: Rewards, Schedule, and Format

Champions remains the flagship competition of Ultimate Team in EA Sports FC 26. Every week, players face a series of intense matches where each victory counts and the best performances are rewarded with valuable packs and credits.

The competition is based on 15 weekly matches, played from Thursday to Tuesday. Matchmaking adapts to your current form, so the more wins you rack up, the tougher your opponents will be. To qualify, you first need 1,000 points in Division Rivals, with at least a Division 7 ranking. If you can’t reach it, the Challengers mode offers a more accessible alternative with fewer rewards but a great way to prepare.

Rewards depend solely on the number of victories. At 15 wins, the haul is exceptional: 85,000 coins, two guaranteed Current Campaign packs, multiple 83+ TOTW packs, 88+ Rare Gold packs and even two players from the ongoing promo. At 14 or 13 wins the loot is slightly smaller but still excellent, and even with 12, 11 or 8 wins you will receive a combination of coins and quality packs to strengthen your team. Even one win gives you something, but the real goal is of course to push for the maximum.

The FUT Champions rewards are distributed every Wednesday morning at 9:00 a.m. French time, a weekly highlight when players open their packs and start preparing their squad for the next cycle.
