Juventus has had a terrible time as of late, the club has no money and has let key players such as Juan Cuadrado, Leanardo Bonucci, and Angel Di Maria leave for absolutely nothing.

EA Sports FC 24: The Best Formation & Starting 11 for Arsenal

Mikel Arteta has transformed Arsenal into title contenders in recent years and their squad in EA Sports FC 24 is a reflection of that.

Their squad is in a bad state in EA Sports FC 24, but they still hold some key players and their squad is still a decent one, even if it is a far cry from the giants they used to be. Juventus has not won the Serie A title since 2019/20 after nine years of winning it back-to-back. The Old Lady needs some work, could that be a job for a budding manager on EA Sports FC 24's career mode?

Despite their off-the-field problems, Juventus are still a top side to use in the game with one of the best out-and-out strikers and a top-level keeper at their disposal.

The Best Formation For Juventus In EA Sports FC 24

Juventus don't have a large squad, so there isn't much to work with in the game, but the best way to go with the Italian side is the 3-1-4-2 formation. They don't have a lot of amazing wingers at the club so using wing-backs is a great way to make use of the squad they have. This is the system that Juve plays in real life, so they are already set up to play this formation.

The best Career Mode free agents are in high demand, so EA Sports FC 24 players will need to snap them up quickly in order to avoid missing out.

Playing with a CDM will allow him to sit back and soak up attacks and allow the wing-backs to push up and join the attack, whipping in crosses to the forwards in the box. Playing with a striker (or CF) that sits a little deeper is crucial to allow links from the midfield to the attack and Juventus has a player who is perfect for this role.

Alternatively, gamers could set Juventus up in a 4-4-2 which will allow one of their better substitutes to start, boosting the total overall of the squad. This does weaken the attacking options on the bench, however.

The Best Starting 11 for Juventus in EA Sports FC 24

As previously mentioned Juventus' side is not as solid as it once was, but there are still a few big names on this side and a lot of prospects for the future. Wojciech Szczesny is a high-rated keeper and pretty much Juve's only option in between the sticks, in front of him is a mixed bag of a defense. There are no questions around Bremer who is a quick and powerful center-back in EA Sports FC 24, he should operate as a sweeper in the middle. To either side of the Brazilian are his compatriot and Juventus captain Danilo and Federico Gatti, who doesn't have a high rating, but there is little other option.

Know all the nuances of the PlayStyles for the world's best players in EA Sports FC 24.

The midfield is missing a few key players, Paul Pogba and Nicolo Fagioli who are banned in real life and thus have been removed from the game. There is little option but what remains is pretty decent. Adrien Rabiot is a fantastic all-around midfielder and Fabio Miretti has the scope to be one of the best Italian midfielders. Sitting in holding midfield is Manuel Locatelli who can sweep up attacks and is a solid base for this group.

Going forward, out wide in the wing-backs (or LM and RM) is Filip Kostic who has high dribbling stats and expert crossing, he is crucial to this system. On the right gamers should play Weston McKennie who can do everything on a football pitch and has a great engine. If gamers want to go a bit more attacking then Timothy Weah is waiting in the wings. Up front is a dynamic pairing of Dusan Vlahovic who can score all different types of goals and the Italian Federico Chiesa who is another player crucial for this formation as he is the transition from midfield to attack, playing a bit deeper with his high dribbling and short passing stats.

Juventus' Ideal Starting XI in the 3-1-4-2 Formation:

With the 4-4-2, if gamers prefer, in comes Arkadiusz Milik up front with Vlahovic to make a more traditional front two, and it allows more options inside the box. Moise Kean should also come in to operate as one of the wingers in the place of Weston McKennie as he has much more pace, but he would not work as a wing-back due to his lack of defending stats.

Juventus' Ideal Starting XI in the 4-4-2 Formation:

Juventus' bench has some key attacking options such as Milik and Kean but virtually none in the midfield (if gamers opt for the 3-1-4-2) due to the players missing thanks to their bans. Samuel Iling-Junior and Timothy Weah offer pace off the bench and should be decent options to bring into the game against tired defenders. With no central defenders available, Alex Sandro can fill in there and Mattia De Sciglio can enter the field with a change in formation.

Overall, while Juventus has a decent starting 11 in the game, the bench needs some real quality. With the 3-1-4-2 the play should come down the flanks, especially through Filip Kostic on the left-hand side. Gamers should play carefully to avoid being open at the back, but the holding midfielder should capably plug in those gaps. Juventus are amazing to use on EA Sports FC 24 and Dusan Vlahovic should score plenty with the support he has on offer.
