Friendlies Explained


Friendlies is an Ultimate Team mode that lets you play relaxed 11v11 Classic matches locally or online without affecting your competitive record.

FC 27 offers two ways to play Friendlies:

  • Couch Play
    Play locally with friends using the same console or PC, either against each other or against an AI controlled squad.

  • Play a Friend
    Invite a friend online and play a head to head match using your Ultimate Team squads.

Traditional online matchmaking against random opponents and House Rules are not available through Friendlies. Public online competitions, special match rules and themed challenges are instead offered through Ultimate Team Live Events.

Friendlies do not affect your main Club record, while injuries and red card suspensions do not carry over to future matches. Loan Player Items can also be used without reducing their remaining contracts.
