Difficulty in Ultimate Team

Remember that in Ultimate Team, changing difficulty in FIFA 22 is slightly different to the method noted above.

First and foremost, you obviously cannot change the difficulty setting when playing in a Divisions Rivals or FUT Champs online match, as you’re playing against someone else.

However, if you’re playing Squad Battles, you’ll be able to change your difficulty after selecting the opposing team. Your difficulty setting directly affects the amount of points you’ll earn for participating in the match in Squad Battles, so always try and push yourself.

When you’re finished, press B and confirm you want to save your changes, you’ll now be ready to take on a slightly tougher or easier opponent.
