Setting Your Lineup Before the Deadline

    Match Day

    Setting Your Lineup

    Your lineup must be submitted before the match deadline. Here's how to get it right.

    Selecting Your Starting Eleven

    1. Go to the Squad page
    2. Click on position slots to assign players
    3. Choose from available players for each position
    4. Make sure all 11 starting positions are filled
    5. Select your substitutes from remaining squad members

    Position Compatibility

    Players perform best in their natural position:

    • Natural position - 100% PS
    • Compatible position - 85% PS
    • Out of position - 75% PS

    Check each player's position flags to avoid penalties.

    The Deadline

    • The match deadline is shown at the top of the Squad and Match pages
    • If you don't submit a lineup, your previous lineup will be used
    • If you have no previous lineup, a default selection is made automatically

    Tips

    • Always check for injured or suspended players before submitting
    • Review the scout report and adjust your lineup accordingly
    • Make sure your bench has positional cover (at least one defender, midfielder, and attacker)
