The end of the annual Future Stars promo gave way to a brand new FIFA Ultimate Team promo known as What If. It works similarly to promos we\u2019ve seen before, where cards can get a quick boost based on their next set of games. However, if you\u2019ve chosen to not go anywhere near the What If cards \u2013 either you haven\u2019t got the coins or couldn\u2019t be bothered opening packs \u2013 don\u2019t worry, old reliable Team of the Week will be here before you know it. It might not be the greatest set of cards we\u2019ve seen all season, given it\u2019s been a bit of a lackluster round of games, but there still should be one or two standouts. So, let\u2019s get into the predictions. This week, our predictions for Team of the Week are headlined by Lionel Messi, Gareth Bale, Ruben Dias, and Leon Goretzka. Bar those, as we noted, it is a bit of a down week.

As for Messi, he bagged three goals and an assist in two goals, and is well in with a shout for TOTW. Aside from them, West Brom\u2019s Kyle Bartley seems a certain pick after his goal and clean sheet in the win over Brighton. Whilst Stuggart\u2019s Wataru Endo and AZ Alkmaar\u2019s Myron Boadu were both in fine goalscoring form.

The 27-year-old was in fine form for PEC Zwolle, bagging a goal and chipping in with an assist against Heerenveen. There is a chance he sneaks into the normal squad, but he\u2019s our Silver Star. \ud83c\udfc6 The Man of the Match van @PECZwolle tegen @scHeerenveen is geworden: Virgil Misidjan! pic.twitter.com\/7YXQADbC1B \u2014 ESPN NL (@ESPNnl) February 26, 2021 When is FIFA TOTW 23 releasing? Obviously, these are purely our predictions for TOTW 23 and aren\u2019t official in any way. EA might have some What If cards for Team 2 that could affect their TOTW plans. Though, we don\u2019t have to wait all that long anyway. Team of the Week 23 will be released on Wednesday, March 3 at 6 PM GMT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FIFA 21 TOTW 23 predictions: Bale, Messi, Goretzka Graphics: EA SPORTSFIFA 21\u2019s Team of the Week 23 is almost here, and if our predictions are spot on, it\u2019ll be good news for certain players who have upgradable cards like Ones to Watch and Headliners.
