FC 26 Gavi vs Nico Gonzalez Showdown SBC: Which one should you complete

The Gavi vs Nico Gonzalez Showdown SBC is an interesting bit of content in FC 26, where you can choose between one of them. While the two cards have their own strengths, one of them will be eligible for significant upgrades.

Let's look at how the two cards look in-game before you pick one of them to complete.

FC 26 Gavi vs Nico Gonzalez Showdown SBC tasks

It's important to look at the tasks you have to complete to get these cards. The two SBCs are priced pretty similarly.

Gavi

FC Barcelona

  • Min. 1 Players from: FC Barcelona
  • Min. 1 Players: Team of the Week
  • Min. Team Rating: 86

LaLiga

  • Min. 1 Players from: LALIGA EA SPORTS
  • Min. Team Rating: 87

Nico Gonzalez

Atletico de Madrid

  • Min. 1 Players from: Atlético de Madrid
  • Min. 1 Players: Team of the Week
  • Min. Team Rating: 86

LaLiga

  • Min. 1 Players from: LALIGA EA SPORTS
  • Min. Team Rating: 87

Which one should you pick

Both cards have great in-game stats, and they are very economical. Almost anyone should have the fodder required for completing the SBC. However, Gavi's item is better before the upgrades. He can operate in a couple of positions, and he is ideally suited to the CM position. He has two great playstyle+ in Tiki Taka and Pinged Pass. The rest of his playstyles are pretty great, and so are his passing stats.

If he gets an upgrade, the card will improve a lot. If not, you should still be able to use this 89-rated item in an ongoing evolution. For 50,000 coins worth of fodder, it's a no-brainer.

That said, Nico Gonzalez could be a good addition if you need an attacker. Moreover, Atletico will be playing the match at home, making them favorites in the clash (and Nico for the upgrades). However, Gavi will still be my choice, considering the respective pros and cons of both cards.
