EA FC 26 Base Icon Matchday Pick SBC (November 23): All tasks and cheapest solutions

EA Sports has released yet another EA FC 26 Base Icon Matchday Pick SBC in Ultimate Team, offering a choice between three incredible legends of the sport. With the likes of Didier Drogba, Raul and Fabio Canavarro being up for grabs, this is certainly the best set of Icons to be released via such a pick.

Previoulsy released Matchday picks offered players like Luis Figo and Sol Campbell, but the latest set of legends outshines the others. Not only are these players incredibly high-rated, they also cost the most via the transfer market, making the EA FC 26 Base Icon Matchday Pick SBC even more tempting.

EA FC 26 Base Icon Matchday Pick SBC: Review

The available players (Image via EA Sports)

The overall expected cost of the EA FC 26 Base Icon Matchday Pick SBC is around 480,000 coins. All three Icons available in this pick were worth over 500,000 coins in the transfer market before the arrival of this SBC, which makes this SBC reasonable in price. Out of the three options, Drogba and Raul are the more expensive options due to their offensive abilities and PlayStyles, but Cannavaro is an amazing defender in the current meta as well.
