As you can expect from a game dominated by the winger meta, no position in EA FC 26 Clubs can impact your defense like your fullbacks (RB and LB).
But as you can expect, getting the best out of your player will demand getting the ideal build, going from the right Archetype all the way to the best PlayStyles. To help you craft the perfect fullback, here are the best LB and RB builds in EA FC 26 Clubs.

The Best LB/RB Archetype In EA FC 26 Clubs
No matter if you plan on putting wingers in your pocket as a classic fullback, flying through the field as a wingback, or wish to go against the current meta and playmake from the middle, Marauder is the best archetype for any LB and RB build in EA FC 26 Clubs. The reason? The pairing of Quick Step+ and a discount when investing in Sprint Speed.
Best Specialization And Regular PlayStyles
With our Archetype taken care of, we will then focus on increasing our overall speed, defensive attributes, long passing, and physicality above all else, while also using the Athlete specialization for its great passive and Bruiser+ PlayStyle later on. For our standard playstyles, aim for Anticipate, Intercept, Jockey, and Press Proven when looking for a defensive specialist. For false backs, we then recommend replacing the latter with Incisive Pass. Relentless and Whipped Pass can then be considered great picks for wingbacks.
You can check out a full overview of our build below, including a recap of all of the info above, as well as a more in-depth look at which stats you should increase.
