Once again, Division Rivals is set to be a major part of the FIFA 21 Ultimate Team experience, and we’ve got the reward options, release time, and everything else you should know about the mode.
As most FIFA players will already know, the online multiplayer side of Ultimate Team is split into three major playlists: FUT Champions Weekend League, Division Rivals, and FUT Draft.
Between the ultra-competitive FUT Champions weekends, most users can be found knee-deep in the trenches of Division Rivals, playing against similarly-skilled opposition with a lot of valuable rewards on the line, such as coins, packs, etc.
The most up-to-date details about this mode can be found below, including the weekly schedule, how it works, the rewards, and more.
FIFA 21 Division Rivals – how it works
Division Rivals features 10 different divisions that players are placed into based on their overall Skill Rating, which goes up or down depending on in-game performances against others for up to 40 matches each week
Skill Rating for each Division
- Division 1: 1,900
- Division 2: 1,700
- Division 3: 1,500
- Division 4: 1,250
- Division 5: 1,000
- Division 6: 750
- Division 7: 550
- Division 8: 350
- Division 9: 115
- Division 10: 0
Each Division is made up of six Ranks, which users are split into depending on their Weekly Score – points obtained from winning, losing, and drawing matches each week. These Ranks are percentage-based, meaning that to be in the higher end of a Division, you’ll need to be within the specified percentage of players.
Division Rivals schedule & rewards release times
Division Rivals can be played seven days a week but the mode is split into weekly sessions, going from starting each Thursday and ending the following Thursday.
The good news is that rewards get released almost right when these periods refresh, at the following worldwide times:

FIFA 21 Division Rivals rewards breakdown
Speaking of rewards, the whole idea behind this mode is for players to earn coins, packs, FUT Champions qualification points, all of which depend on the Rank and Division.
Furthermore, in FIFA 21, EA SPORTS are also giving players a one-time coin bonus for earning promotion to a higher Division. This applies right away following the five placement matches, meaning you can earn several Divisions-worth of boosts right away.
