The basics
What is Matchday Squads?
Matchday Squads is a web-based game that allows you to form Squads with your Matchday cards in your favourite formation to play a Friendly Match.
In future, you’ll be able to compete against other Squads in the Weekly League, or complete Daily Missions for rewards.
How do I form a Squad in Matchday Squads?
To form a Squad in Matchday Squads, you'll need to first collect some Matchday cards. Once you have at least 11 cards, go to the "Squad" tab and set your starting line-up and substitutes.
You can also set your Squad’s formation by clicking on the formation button at the top right of the screen. Don’t forget to save when you’re done!
How do I acquire new Matchday cards in Matchday Squads?
