FC 25 Team of The Week 13 Predictions

There are numerous standout players within TOTW 13 as it looks set to be one of the most desirable to date. Whether that's Salah securing a new contract, Timber featuring after his goal against United, or Musiala and Griezmann both scoring twice, there are plenty of players to look forward to.

Donovan Leon - GK - 70 > 86 OVR

Eleven saves and clean sheet  /  Auxerre 0 - PSG 0  /  10 L’equipe Rating

I’m relieved Leon has a four-week gap, as this decision would’ve been incredibly tough otherwise. With eleven saves, nine of which came inside the box, Leon was crucial in securing a point for Auxerre against PSG. It’s likely the best goalkeeping performance we’ll witness this year.

Wilfried Singo - CB - 79 > 84 OVR

Goal and clean sheet  /  Monaco 2 - Toulouse 0  /  8 L’equipe Rating 

I’ve been wrong about Singo in the past, but this time feels different. The Ivorian looks like a sure bet after scoring one of Monaco’s two goals and earning an impressive 8/10 rating from L’Équipe, the second-highest of the week.

Jurrien Timber - CB - 79 > 86 OVR

Goal and clean sheet  /  Arsenal 2 - Man United 0  /  8 Sky Rating 

With Saliba featuring in the recent Thunderstruck promotion, I am unsure if he can get in. Timber was named MOTM during their first fixture of the week, a 2-0 win over United. With a featured upgrade, I am sure he will be a popular card as well.

Maxim De Cuyper - LB - 76 > 83 OVR

One goal, one assist  /  Mechelen 1 - Brugge 2  /  9.4 Sofascore Rating

Brugge could easily look back at this result come the end of the season, with their last-minute winner being a crucial deciding factor. Cuyper provided the assist for the winner, adding to his goal earlier in the match. There were a lot of strong defensive options this week, and it’s difficult to decide who ends up missing out.

Mohamed Salah - RM - 89 > 91 OVR

Two goals, one assist  /  Newcastle 3 - Liverpool 3  /  8 Sky Rating 

Although Liverpool ended up dropping points due to a last-minute Schär goal, Salah was simply magnificent throughout, contributing to all three Liverpool goals. Now, with a four-week gap, the Egyptian can receive another IF, and it looks as though he's not wasting any time about it.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan - CM - 83 > 86 OVR

Two assists  /  Inter 3 - Parma 1  /  7.5 Gazzetta Rating 

At 35 years old, Mkhitaryan remains a key player for Inter Milan, earning a +2 upgrade from last year. His two assists this weekend further underline his influence and make him a strong candidate for his first promotional card of the game

Jamal Musiala - CAM - 87 > 88 OVR

Two goals  /  Munich 4 - Heidenheim 2  /  1 Kicker Rating 

Musiala has been ignored a couple of times due to his trailblazer card but I believe there has now been enough room between the two for Musiala to now be included. The German received a perfect 1 match rating from Kicker as his brace hlped secure a 4-2 win for Munich

Cole Palmer - CAM - 85 > 87 OVR

Two goals, one assist  /  Tottenham 3 - Chelsea 4  /  9 Sky Rating 

Chelsea came away with all three points as they played out a seven-goal classic with Tottenham. The hosts went two goals up early on, but Chelsea soon came back into the match with star man Palmer once again pulling the strings. Palmer was snubbed last week, but I can’t see the same happening again this time around.

Roberto Firmino - CAM - 80 > 86 OVR

One goal, two assists  /  Al-Taawoun 2 - Al-Ahli 4  /  10 Sofascore Rating

With Firmino being a popular name, I would expect his chances to further increase for this side and additionally put him high on the featured list. The Brazilian is yet to feature in a promotion, but his three-goal contributions on Saturday look set to change that on Wednesday.

Jonathan David - ST - 81 > 86 OVR

Two goals, one assist  /  Lille 3 - Brest 1  /  8 L’equipe Rating 

All three Ligue 1 selections seem easy to make this week, with the three selected standing out in their positions and via L’Équipe ratings. David was another who received an 8 after the Canadian scored twice and assisted another during their 3-1 win over Brest.

Antoine Griezmann - ST - 88 > 89 OVR

Two goals  /  Atletico Madrid 4 - Sevilla 3  /  9.4 Sofascore Rating 

Strikers were few and far between this week, and we will likely see at least one random inclusion as a result. Griezmann was one who stood out, though, scoring twice. The Frenchman helped Atletico come out on top of a seven-goal thriller with Sevilla.

Substitutes

James Tavernier - RB - 78 > 84 OVR

Goal, assist and clean sheet  /  Rangers 6 - Kilmarnock 0  /  9.3 Sofascore Rating

Rangers are not close to the level they require to challenge for the title this season and sit eleven points behind leaders Celtic as a result. Their latest performance was a comfortable one, though, scoring six without reply. Tavernier is a familiar face within the EA community and looks set to start his year off after scoring one and assisting another.

Alex Iwobi - CDM - 77 > 83 OVR

Two goals  /  Fulham 3 - Brighton 1  /  8 Sky Rating 

Fulham are going a little under the radar, but they continue to push towards European places. A 3-1 home win over Brighton was led by a superb Iwobi performance. The Nigerian scored twice while playing a defensive midfield role. It’s been a while since his FUT Rush card, so I fully expect an inclusion here.

Morgan Gibbs-White - CAM - 79 > 84 OVR

Goal and assist  /  Man United 2 - Forest 3  /  8 Sky Rating 

Although Amorim has shown promising signs since taking charge of United, the results are still lacking. Forest took full advantage of this, securing a 3-2 win on the road. MGW was the standout performer, contributing a goal and an assist, earning him the MOTM award.

Dominique Janssen - CDM - 84 > 86 OVR

One goal, two assists  /  Man United 4 - Liverpool 0  /  9.2 Sofascore Rating 

Janssen operated in a more advanced CDM role this weekend, and the change paid off well with three goal contributions and a MOTM display. Janssen’s base stats suit the CDM role more so than a CB, so the positional change in terms of the game will come as a welcoming one.

Ismael Saibari - CM - 76 > 86 OVR

Two goals, two assists  /  PSV 6 - Twente 1  /  9 VI Rating 

Saibari is one of the most IF players around right now. He was knocking on the door last week for a SIF, but a 3-week gap was not enough. Now, with a fourth week and a ridiculous performance against Twente, the SIF is inevitable.

Jonas Wind - ST - 78 > 84 OVR

Two goals  /  Wolfsburg 4 - Mainz 3  /  1.5 Kicker Rating 

Wolfsburg and Mainz played out a thrilling seven-goal encounter that kept fans on the edge of their seats. Wind’s second-half introduction proved decisive, as he scored in the 84th and 94th minutes to completely turn the game around.

Nick Woltemade - ST - 69 > 83 OVR

Two goals  /  Stuttgart 3 - Union Berlin 2  /  1 Kicker Rating

Woltemade was named Bundesliga POTW by Kicker after his double helped Stuttgart secure a 3-2 win at home to Union Berlin. While non-golds rarely come out of the reserves, with limited ST options this week, it makes sense that Woltemade will.

Reserves

Two goals and clean sheet  /  RB Salzburg 4 - Hartberg 0  /  8.7 Sofascore Rating

Goal, assist and clean sheet  /  Granada 5 - Deportivo 0  /  9 Sofascore Rating
