Best Formation in EAFC 25
Let’s get straight into why the 4-3-2-1 formation is so effective and how you can set it up in EAFC 25. This formation is loved for its balance. It allows you to dominate both ends of the pitch while giving flexibility to tweak your tactics depending on how the match is going.
To start, you can recreate the 4-3-2-1 formation using the 4-5-1 Flat setup. Don’t worry—it’s a simple switch. Just use the custom tactic code E#d4vJsK%io, and your team will automatically adapt to the 4-3-2-1 shape. Alternatively, if you’re playing Pro Clubs or Ultimate Team, you can directly use the code yTKGM2C58vC to load the 4-3-2-1 formation. Both methods work, so it’s all about your preference.
Custom Tactics
Now, let’s talk custom tactics. For Build-Up Play, go with Balanced. It gives you the best of both worlds, allowing your team to adapt without sticking to just one style. For the Defensive Approach, keep it Balanced with a line height of around 50-70. This ensures that you’re neither too defensive nor leaving too much space at the back.
As for player roles, here’s the breakdown:
- Goalkeeper: Sweeper Keeper or Balanced
- Left Back (LB) & Right Back (RB): Fullback (Defend)
- Center Backs (CB): Central Defenders (Defend)
- Left Center Mid (LCM): Deep Lying Playmaker (Defend)
- Center Mid (CM): Holding Midfielder (Defend)
- Right Center Mid (RCM): Box-to-Box (Balanced)
- Left Attacking Mid (LAM): Playmaker (Roaming)
- Right Attacking Mid (RAM): Shadow Striker (Attack)
- Striker (ST): Target Forward (Balanced)
With this setup, you’re giving your team a solid defensive base while allowing creativity in attack. The key is the balance between your midfielders and forwards, with the LAM and RAM creating plenty of chances for the striker. Whether you’re facing a high-press team or one that sits deep, this formation adapts beautifully.
