UPDATE: RTTF Team 2 is live!

EA Sports released the second Road to the Final Team FIFA 21 on November 13th. Unlike in the first week, we got new Champions- and Europa League Cards. Five players per competition got a new dynamic card for the FUT mode.

FIFA 21 Champions League RTTF Team 2

  • LW: Eden Hazard (Real Madrid) - 89 OVR
  • ST: Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City) - 85 OVR
  • CAM: Quincy Promes (Ajax Amsterdam) - 84 OVR
  • CAM: Julian Draxler (Paris St.-Germain) - 83 OVR
  • CB: Manuel Akanji (Borussia Dortmund) - 82 OVR

SBCs and Objectives

  • CF: Joaquin Correa (Lazio Rom) - 84 OVR (Objectives)
  • LB: Alex Sandro (Piemonte Calcio) - 86 OVR (SBC)
  • LM: Felipe Anderson (FC Porto) - 84 OVR (SBC)

FIFA 21 Europa League RTTF Team 2

  • CB: Kalidou Koulibaly (SSC Napoli) - 89 OVR
  • LB: Grimaldo (Benfeica Lissabon) - 86 OVR
  • RW: Portu (Real Sociedad) - 85 OVR
  • CM: Moussa Sissoko (Tottenham Hotspur) - 82 OVR
  • CM: Frank Kessie (AC Milan) - 81 OVR
  • ST: Ihlas Bebou (TSG Hoffenheim) - 80 OVR

So there's a lot of cards again that are incredibly strong and that might possibly grow even stronger within the next couple of months. Additionally, Portu and Sissoko get new Special Cards after already having had extremely overpowered Gold Cards! Gabriel Jesus is almost certain to get the first upgrade. After all, his club, Manchester City, is nine points ahead of everyone and ranks first in Group C. Grimaldo and Benfica Lissabon as well as Bebou and TSG Hoffenheim have good chances in the Europa League.

UPDATE: FIFA 21 Europa League RTTF Team 1 released

Six new, dynamic Road to the Final (RTTF) cards have found their way into FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. There are some really strong variants among the players, the rating of which could increase significantly in the course of the current season.

Five of the cards can be found in packs until November 17th, and another player - Youcef Atal from OGC Nice - can be unlocked as a Squad Building Challenge.

Europa League RTTF Team 1

  • ST: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal London) - 88 OVR
  • CDM: Wilfred Ndidi (Leicester City) - 86 OVR
  • LM: Moussa Diaby (Bayer Leverkusen) - 84 OVR
  • CM: Renato Sanches (Lille OSC) - 82 OVR
  • RB: Bruno Peres (Roma FC) - 81 OVR
  • RB: Youcef Atal (OGC Nice) - 82 OVR (SBC)

A second FIFA 21 RTTF Champions League team will be released next Friday, November 13th. A second Europa League team will presumably follow on Tuesday (November 17th).

Aubameyang and Ndidi are almost certain to get their first upgrade, after all their teams are in first place in their respective Europa League groups with nine points each. Diaby, Sanches and Peres also have good chances, only Atal's team OGC Nice are clearly behind.

UPDATE November 7th: Champions League RTTF Team 1

On Friday evening the time had finally come: EA Sports launched the first FIFA 21 RTTF team with some really strong cards. Goalkeeper Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid) continues to set himself apart from his competition, but the Bundesliga is not neglected in the first Road to the Final team either.

RTTF Team 1:

  • GK: Jan Oblak - Atletico Madrid - 92 OVR
  • RW: Mohamed Salah - FC Liverpool - 91 OVR
  • ST: Antoine Griezmann - FC Barcelona - 88 OVR
  • LM: Marcus Rashford - Manchester United - 86 OVR
  • CDM: Denis Zakaria - Borussia Mönchengladbach - 85 OVR
  • LM: Ivan Perisic - Inter Mailand - 84 OVR
  • LM: Taison - Schachtar Donezk - 84 OVR
  • LB: Alphonso Davies - FC Bayern München - 84 OVR
  • CB: Lukas Klostermann - RB Leipzig - 83 OVR
  • ST: Muriel - Atalanta Bergamo - 82 OVR
  • CM: Morgan Sanson - Olympique Marseille - 82 OVR

Objectives and SBC Players:

These RTTF players are particularly interesting

The German Bundesliga in particular is heavily served in FIFA 21 RTTF Team 1. Left-back Alphonso Davies is already an end game card. Especially since it can be assumed that FC Bayern will be able to confidently win their own group. The card then rises to an 86 OVR for the last 16.

RTTF Denis Zakaria in the central defensive midfield is also tough and was already extremely overpowered with the gold card - the RTTF variant is already one of the best six in the game. A similar case is Lukas Klostermann, who is currently the best center back in the Bundesliga with the new card.

But the cards from Oblak, Salah, and Griezmann are also powerful. This is where the tactics start again this year because if a team is eliminated from the tournament, no further upgrades will follow.

3rd place is where it actually gets exciting, though: the RTTF card will automatically be converted into a Europa League variant - some teams have significantly higher chances of advancing from thereon.

A second Road to the Final team will follow on November 13 already - we are excited to see which players will be included.

Original article of November 5th: FIFA 21 Road to the Final: Here's What it's All About

After the Rulebreakers event disappointed in the second week, the next FUT promo started on November 6th. This time everything revolves around the Champions League - whether, like last year, the Europa League will also receive RTTF cards is still unclear.

Road to the final was already a popular event in FIFA 20. Everything revolves around the Champions League here: Certain players of participating teams can look forward to new special cards with improved values.

The special feature: These are, similar to the Ones to Watch, dynamic, and increase in rating the further the team progresses in the course of the tournament. The RTTF cards of Kingsley Coman & Leon Goretzka from FC Bayern Munich landed at 95 OVR after the win, after starting at 86 OVR at the beginning of the promo.
