As previously established, the Showdown series pits boosted cards from opposite sides against one another in an upcoming matchup. In the event of a draw, both cards receive a +1, with the losing side receiving nothing, while the victorious side’s card will receive a +2 upgrade.

John Stones and Jacob Murphy have been selected by EA Sports as the two teams’ respective representative cards for the upcoming Manchester City vs. Newcastle matchup. Both teams are on the brink in this game because Manchester City has to win to keep pace with Arsenal for the Premier League title. As the Premier League nears its conclusion, Newcastle hopes to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League.

Premier League

  • Number of players in the squad: Minimum of 11
  • Number of players from Premier League: Minimum of 1
  • Squad Rating: Minimum of 85

Reward: 1 x Prime Mixed Players Pack

Estimated Cost: 98,000 – 105,000 FUT Coins

To optimize their rewards from the Squad Building Challenge, FIFA 23 players should complete the entire set using fodder, which will cost about 120,000 FUT coins. This makes the SBC for the Jacob Murphy Showdown exceedingly pricey.

The 87-rated RM card has already seen a significant improvement, receiving a +14 to its overall rating, making it very playable in FUT. For a better grasp of what people are receiving, here are all the stats from the card:

  • Overall: 87
  • Position: RM (Alt – RW, RWB)
  • Pace: 92
  • Shooting: 80
  • Passing: 84
  • Dribbling: 88
  • Defense: 78
  • Physicality: 78
  • Skills: 4 Star
  • Weak foot: 4 star

The Jacob Murphy Showdown card appears to be quite strong, with a high pace rating, strong dribbling and passing ratings. But given that Manchester City are the favorites to defeat Newcastle, it’s possible that the card won’t receive any further improvements. Those who want to add him to their FIFA 23 teams should bear that in mind as they attempt to finish a somewhat pricey SBC.
