I hovered over the SBC window and felt every unused silver in my club become a question mark. You can see the free pack shimmering just out of reach if you misplace one or two links. I’ll walk you through the fastest, cheapest route so you don’t leave value on the bench.

I notice squads stacked with mid-silver players — FC 27 Destined for Glory Challenge 3 tasks and solutions
The Destined for Glory Challenge 3 SBC in EA SPORTS FC 27 is a single-solution puzzle: meet the chemistry and club/league constraints, submit the team, and grab a Mixed Players Pack. The requirements look fiddly at first, but the trick is to use what you already own and only buy if a gap is unavoidable.
What are the requirements for Destined for Glory Challenge 3?
- Same league: Max. 4 players
- Same club: Min. 3 players
- Clubs: Max. 4
- Nations: Min. 2
- Quality: Min. Silver
- Chemistry: Min. 22
That chemistry threshold is the leash: you don’t need a perfect 100, but 22 forces you to balance club links and nationality. If you arrange three players from one club and spread the rest across familiar leagues, you’ll land the number without upgrading ratings.
How do I complete the SBC cheaply?
Start in the FUT Web App or Companion App and sort your club by rating and league. Look for silvers in the 66–71 range you never use and slot them in — the SBC is designed for fodder, not star buys. If you must purchase, expect to spend around $1 (€1) per missing silver on the market; use FUTBIN or FUTWIZ to check quick prices before bidding.
One approach is to build around a three-player club spine (that meets the same-club minimum) and add mixed-league players until chemistry hits 22. It’s like finding a forgotten twenty in an old jacket: small items add up to cover the cost of the pack.
Recommended cheap fillers (swap in whatever matches your club links):
- Marti 71
- Imeri ST 69
- Bravo LM 67
- Neto Volpi 70
- Mosquera CM 69
- Kamber CM 70
- Gho RM 68
- Martinez CB 70
- Godoy CB 71
- Angulo CB 70
- Nunez 66
What does the Mixed Players Pack contain?
The reward is a Mixed Players Pack (untradeable) with four Bronze, four Silver, and four Gold players. That pack is small but useful: a single lucky Gold could be a promo item or a walkout, and even the rest become fodder for future SBCs or squad building. Treat the pack like a tidy shortcut — like a locksmith picking a simple lock — to squeeze value out of idle cards.
Tips from the bench: check FUTBIN for card trends, use the Companion App to shuffle players when you’re away from your console, and prioritize submitting cards already in your club to avoid market fees. If you’re a collector, remember these rewards are untradeable, so their value is utility-based rather than market-based.
Will you take the quick, near-free pack now or hoard your silvers in hopes of a bigger promo later?
