EA Sports' latest installment of their ever successful FIFA series is due to hit shelves in just over a week's time, with FIFA 18 threatening once more to be the best in the franchise so far with a host of new features. The reactions to the demo certainly seem to suggest it's going down very well.

Game modes like 'The Journey' have been upgraded and improved, while once again a summer of hefty transfer activity has seen many clubs undergo something of a makeover in terms of new playing personnel.

This actually gives FIFA one of its most exciting edges, with players up and down the country trying to second guess which team will turn out the best for them to take control of and take the bragging rights in matches against their mates.

Whether it be pacey line-ups, sides full of height, or teams made up of genuine superstars, everyone has their favourite team after only a few plays of a FIFA game. And there are already some very appealing options to choose from as soon as the game comes out.

10. Juventus

Juventus have always had a team which has been seen as solid defensively, and possessing a bit of quality up the top of the pitch, which gives FIFA players confidence they can put them to good use and put in sound performances.

This year though sees 'The Old Lady' add some genuine pace and quality to their attacking options in the form of Brazilian Douglas Costa, while Blase Matuidi has made the move from Paris St Germain to give them power and speed through the middle of the pitch.

Add these to a solid defensive line-up and the talents of Paulo Dybala and Gonazlo Higuain up top, and Juventus could well be many gamers' pick when FIFA hits shelves at the end of the month. Anyone who picks Juventus will know exactly what they are getting, and they could take some stopping with the right player in control.
