- Attack: 85
- Midfield: 82
- Defense: 83

For those who like patient teams looking for the distractions of opponents to score, Atletico Madrid is the ideal team. Midfield is slow, but players have a lot of technique to compensate for.
8. Manchester Utd
- Overall: 83
- Attack: 85
- Midfield: 83
- Defense: 81

- Overall: 83
- Attack: 85
- Midfield: 83
- Defense: 82
- Star: Harry Kane (88)

The Spurs (Tottenham) are a young team with huge potential. The attack is very well delivered to midfielder Eriksen (88), South Korean Son (84), young promise Dele Alli (84) and striker striker Harry Kane (88).
However, the defense is the weakness of the Spurs. If you face very fast teams, you will experience some difficulties in defense. This team has a lot of potential and if you explore the attack well you can score a lot of goals.
6. Paris SG
- Overall: 83
- Attack: 86
- Midfield: 82
- Defense: 82
- Star: Neymar (92)
- League: Ligue 1 (France)
A team with Neymar (92), Dani Alves (83), Thiago Silva (87) and Marquinhos (84) is almost half of the Brazilian team. The options for the attack are various with golden boy Mbappé (84), Uruguayan striker Cavani (88), Argentinian forward Di Maria (84) and of course our Neymar (92).
You have everything to go well with Paris SG's attack, but the ball needs to reach the attackers and that's the problem. The midfield is not very good, except for Italian Verratti (87).
5. Manchester City
- Overall: 84
- Attack: 85
- Midfield: 87
- Defense: 83
- Star: Kevin De Bruyne (91)
- League: Barclays Premier League (England)
Coach Guardiola's squad is clearly one of the strongest in FIFA 18. The midfield run by Kevin De Bruyne (91) and David Silva (89) is probably the deadliest of them all. Already in the attack, there is the super fast trio, composed by Sané (85), Sterling (85) and Aguero (89) - capable of destroying any defense.
The 2017/2018 Premier League champions are a team with enormous offensive power. In defense, defender duo Kompany (85) and Otamendi (85) are very efficient.
4. Juventus
- Overall: 85
- Attack: 87
- Midfield: 84
- Defense: 84
- Star: Paulo Dybala (89)
- Championship: Serie A TIM (Italy)

Leaders Juan Cudrado (83) and Brazilian Douglas Costa (84) are fast and perfect for playing with the attacking duo. Midfield and defense are very solid sectors, although not fast.
3. Barcelona
- Overall: 85
- Attack: 93
- Midfield: 85
- Defense: 84
- Star: Lionel Messi (94)
- League: Liga BBVA (Spain)
It is customary for Barcelona to be FIFA's deadliest attack and this year is no exception. Lionel Messi (94), along with his attacking partners Suaréz (92) and Brazilian Coutinho (87), makes any defense in the world tremble.
The defense is not perfect, but it does its job very well where defender Pique (87) is the main protagonist. Barcelona are full of stars and no one has difficulty playing with this team.
2. Real Madrid

- Attack: 86
- Midfield: 86
- Defense: 86
- Star: Cristiano Ronaldo (94)

Cristiano Ronaldo (94) is the super star and is surrounded by other stars such as Luka Modric (89), Toni Kroos (90) and Gareth Bale (88). Sergio Ramos (90) is the team captain and probably the best defender in FIFA 18.
Real Madrid are very fast on the counter attack and an excellent option for those who like to play fast. If Cristiano Ronaldo gets some space, it is certainly a big threat to his rivals.
