FIFA 22 Ultimate Team rewards schedule: FUT Champions, Division Rivals & Squad Battles
Check out our full FIFA 22 Ultimate Team schedule of when FUT Champions, Division Rivals, and Squad Battles rewards are released.
There’s plenty of ways of earning packs in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, whether it’s in Squad Battles, Division Rivals, or FUT Champions. But every different mode drops its rewards on a different day. Here’s the schedule for each one.
The main hook of FIFA 22 Ultimate Team is grinding out packs in pursuit of a high-rated superstar like Ronaldo or Mbappe.
To consistently earn pack rewards, there are three different modes to take part in, from offline Squad Battles against the AI or the sometimes brutal FUT Champions Weekend League.
Each different has its own schedule for handing out rewards, we break down each one below.
When are Squad Battle rewards released?
In FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, Squad Battle rewards drop in the early hours of Sunday morning every single week.
This is a change from the Sunday night / Monday morning schedule used since Squad Battles were first introduced.
The time that you can expect your hard-earned packs depends on where you live, so we’ve listed some of the most popular timezones below:
- North America: 12:05 AM PDT / 3:05 AM EDT
- UK: 9.05 AM BST
- Europe: 9:05 AM CEST / 10:05 AM EEST
EA cuts off the chance to earn points and move up a rank five minutes before rewards are released, so be sure to leave enough time to squeeze in a final game.
When are Division Rivals rewards released
Division Rivals rewards also work on a weekly schedule, releasing every Thursday just in time to make last-minute changes before the Weekend League.
Again, the times that the rewards appear in a player’s account varies based on country, so here they are by timezone:
- North America: 12:00 AM PDT / 3:00 AM EDT
- UK: 9:00 AM BST
- Europe: 9:00 AM CEST / 10:00 AM EEST
Here, packs and coins are dished out based on both a player’s rank and if they have achieved three or seven wins throughout the week.
When are FUT Champions rewards released?
FUT Champion Finals works slightly differently because players can claim their packs after they complete all 20 games, or after the Monday morning deadline if they have games leftover.
After the Weekend League opens on Friday morning, players are free to complete their 20 matches as quickly as they choose, and claim their rewards as soon as the final game ends.
Alternatively, if someone chooses not to complete all 20 matches, they can get rewards for whichever rank they are after the mode closes on Monday.
Once again, this cut-off point varies across different countries, here it is by timezone:
- North America: 2 AM PDT / 5 AM EDT
- UK: 11 AM BST
- Europe: 11 AM CEST / 12 PM EEST
Will these times change?
As time zones change throughout the year, EA tweaks the schedule to reflect the difference in time.
In the case of each different country, the time that rewards are released moves forward or back to match the changed time.
For example, when the UK converts to GMT and clocks go back by one hour, all rewards will drop an hour earlier than before.
That is everything you need to know on when the rewards for each FIFA 22 Ultimate Team mode will be released.

FIFA 23 Serie A ratings: Every team’s best players predictions
The Serie A will bring some of the world’s best players to FIFA 23, so we’ve predicted who will have the highest rating for each club.
New arrivals have made the Serie A an exciting league to keep an eye on in FIFA 23’s Ultimate Team. From Juventus to both divides of Milan, here are our predictions for the top Serie A ratings in FIFA 23, as well as every team’s best players.
With each iteration of FIFA, EA updates player ratings based on their performances in the previous season, and FIFA 23 will be no exception. Seria A fans received a title race for the ages during the 2021/2022 season as both Milan sides looked to conquer Italy.
When it comes to Serie A player ratings in Ultimate Team, you can expect the top performers to receive major rating boosts. However, don’t forget that new transfers are making their way to Italy over the summer and some major stars cannot be overlooked.
Who will be the best players in the Serie A? We’ve put together our predictions for the top 10 highest-rated Serie A players in FIFA 23, and highlighted the best players from each club.

FIFA 23 Serie A top 10 player rating predictions
| Player | Club | Upgrade / Downgrade | Rating |
| Ciro Immobile | Lazio | +1 | 88 |
| Milan Skriniar | Inter Milan | +1 | 87 |
| Romelu Lukaku | Inter Milan | -1 | 87 |
| Theo Hernandez | A.C Milan | +2 | 86 |
| Wojciech Szczesny | Juventus | -1 | 86 |

| Lautaro Martinez | Inter Milan | +1 | 86 |
| Paul Pogba | Juventus | -1 | 86 |
| Sergej Milinkovic-Savic | Lazio | +1 | 86 |
| Mike Maignan | A.C Milan | +2 | 86 |
There are some incredible storylines that should make for some great Serie A Ultimate Team squads in FIFA 22. Superstars Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku are returning to their former clubs after time in the Premier League.
Given how both of these players failed to meet expectations, their ratings are expected to drop in FIFA 23. While new faces will make their way to Serie A, some top players will be departing including Chiellini, Insigne, Kessie, and possibly more.

Fortunately, top performers from the previous season are ready to step in to fill the void in Ultimate Team. Mike Maignan won the goalkeeper of the year award last season so there’s no denying that he’s deserving of a rating increase.
Milan Skriniar was a brick wall for Inter Milan last season and will surely receive a rating increase whether he stays with Inter Milan or moves on to PSG as rumors suggest. Koulibaly is another that could depart Serie A, but if he stays at Napoli he’ll continue to be one of the best defenders in the league.
FIFA 23 Serie A rating predictions: Every team’s best players
The top 10 player ratings list is dominated by Italy’s elite, but the Serie A has some hidden gems across clubs outside of the top six. EA will dish out some interesting upgrades and downgrades across the league. FIFA 23 will take into account the top performers of last season as well as the duds that failed to meet expectations.

FIFA 23 Premier League ratings: Every team’s best players predictions
The Premier League is set to host some of the best players in FIFA 23, so we’ve predicted who will have the highest rating for each club.
The Premier League will be home to some of FIFA 23’s brightest stars, with players from the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool set to dominate Ultimate Team. Here are our predictions for the top Premier League ratings in FIFA 23, as well as every team’s best players.
Each and every year, EA updates its roster of players with new ratings based on how they performed in the previous season, and FIFA 23 is no exception. The 2021/22 campaign saw some exceptional performances, which will no doubt be reflected in the FIFA 23 ratings.
One of the biggest leagues to feature in FIFA 23 is the Premier League. Whether you’re building your dream Ultimate Team or embarking on a Career Mode, the English top-flight is likely to play a part.

FIFA 23 Premier League top 10 player rating predictions
| Player | Club | Upgrade / Downgrade | Rating |
| Kevin De Bruyne | Manchester City | – | 91 |
| Cristiano Ronaldo | Manchester United | – | 91 |
| Mohamed Salah | Liverpool | +1 | 90 |
| Heung Min-Son | Spurs | +1 | 90 |
| Harry Kane | Spurs | – | 90 |
| Alison Becker | Liverpool | +1 | 90 |
| Ederson | Manchester City | +1 | 90 |
| Erling Haaland | Manchester City | +2 | 90 |
| Virgil Van Dijk | Liverpool | – | 89 |
| Trent Alexander-Arnold | Liverpool | +2 | 88 |
After they two fought tooth and nail for all three domestic trophies last season, we’re expecting Manchester City and Liverpool to dominate the ratings in FIFA 23.
After winning Premier League Player of the Season, Kevin De Bruyne will likely keep his lofty 91 rating, sharing the top spot with Cristiano Ronaldo, who also enjoyed a great individual season in a struggling United team.
We’ve listed Erling Haaland as one of the highest climbers, who should receive a large bump after his high-profile move to City. Trent Alexander-Arnold is also expected to be rewarded after his best season to date, managing 12 assists from right back.
Heung Min-Son also registered his most prolific year in the Premier League so far, finishing as the joint-top goalscorer. This should be enough to see him move up a rating and join the coveted 90 club.
FIFA 23 Premier League rating predictions: Every team’s best players
While most clubs won’t have a shot of landing a player in the top 10, it’s still interesting to see how EA upgrades and downgrades stars from across the league. Every team had both standouts and flops that should be reflected when FIFA 23 rolls around.
With this in mind, we’ve made our predictions for every Premier League club’s top three players in FIFA 23:
