The previous Summer Heat Showdown matchup was won by Phil Foden in a landslide thanks to his club Manchester City thrashing Liverpool 4-0. This week’s Showdown seems set for a similar development with players from Granada and Real Madrid to choose from. Could we see a surprise?
Real Madrid have been on a late season run in their bid to dethrone Barcelona in the Spanish La Liga and their next test is Granada. EA Sports have picked this precise matchup for the next FIFA 20 Summer Heat Showdown. The players picked to compete are Darwin Machís from Granada and Vinícius from Real Madrid.
A brief reminder on how this works: both players will receive SBC cards, but the one playing on the winning side will get a 3-point overall boost on his stats. In case of a draw, both will get a single point on top of their 92-rated regular SBC cards.

You can go safe and complete the Vinícius SBC as Real are heavy favorites to win that game. Of course, EA are not (that) stupid so naturally, his SBC requires much more resources to be completed. In fact, he is worth double what Machís would cost you – 260,000 coins to the Venezuelan’s 130,000. You can go the way of the gambler and hope for an upset or prove you simply don’t care by completing both challenges. All up to you, fam.
The match takes place on July 13, so you’ll have plenty of time to make up your mind.
