FIFA 22 Best Fullbacks Tier List (November 2024)

A fullback in FIFA 22 is a defender that can play on either side of the pitch, lining up as a right back (RB), left back (LB), right-wing back (RWB) or left-wing back (LWB). Generally speaking, their role is to prevent the opposition from creating goal-scoring opportunities by shutting down their advances along the sidelines. As well as to provide support on offense and join the attack if need be.

Since the fullback has several roles on both sides of the pitch, it can be hard to know which players are worth investing in. Luckily, we’ve created a FIFA 22 tier list ranking all of the best fullbacks in the game.

FIFA 22 Best Fullbacks Tier List (November 2024)

In FIFA 22, you’ll want a fullback on both sides of the field that is fast, strong and comfortable with the ball. This way they can both defend the wider areas of the field while still having a reliable enough skill set to offer support when going on the offensive. As a result, each of the following players have been ranked based on these attributes.

Without further ado, here is our FIFA 22 fullbacks tier list.
