How to Play FIFA 23 442 Formation

The goal with 442 formation is to have two central midfielders building a base in central midfield, with two overlapping fullbacks covered by a couple of wingers who are willing to get back on defense. We like to ensure our forwards stay central, but it's good to have one pacey workhorse who helps out in defence and is also willing to run in behind, and then partner him with a second forward who stays forward and can hold up the ball.

 

Winning the ball back high up the pitch can also be effective with this formation, and as this year's game allows for five substitutions, you don't need to worry too much about running out of stamina — as long, of course, as you have a strong bench. Obviously, you may want to tone down your tactics if you want to conserve energy, but this is up to you.

 

For teams to be successful using this formation in FIFA 23, their squad must have midfield maestros who can marshal the center of the pitch and dictate gameplay. Rapid wingers with good crossing abilities are also of vital importance, as the two strikers can play as target men in the box.
