EA FC 25 Team of the Week 12 Predictions

Here are the players we’re expecting for this week’s TOTW based on their performances for the week.



Van Dijk is back to his best for Slot’s new-look Liverpool side

Virgil Van Dijk – CB – Liverpool FC – Everyone is talking about Mo Salah at the moment, but it’d be fair to say Van Dijk is back to his imperious best. The CB made Manchester City look amateurish at times over the weekend, keeping a clean sheet against the champions.

Julian Alvarez – ST– Atletico Madrid – How would Manchester City look with Alvarez still in their team? The striker scored again, and notched an assist in a 5-1 win, earning a Player of the Match award in the process.

Lucas Perez – ST– Deportivo de La Coruna – Arguably never given the chance to shine at Arsenal, Lucas Perez bagged a hattrick for Deportivo de La Coruna over the weekend, and was awarded POTM.



Bukayo Saka is Arsenal’s leading light again this season

Bukayo Saka – RWArsenal – Arsenal’s winger has 15 goal involvements this season, notching another three against a hapless West Ham side with two assists and a goal.

Kevin Schade – LM – Schade smashed in a Premier League hattrick over the weekend against Leicester to earn Brentford a big win.



Amad Diallo is thriving under new boss Ruben Amorim

Amad Diallo – RM – Manchester United – Diallo grabbed two assists to go with the one he got against Ipswich, and kept a clean sheet as Manchester United destroyed Everton.

Leandro Cabrera – CB – Espanyol – It’s not often to see a centre back grab a goal, an assist, and a clean sheet in the same game, so expect Cabrera in the TOTW.

Joshua Zirkzee – ST – Manchester United – Another Manchester United player? Zirzkee grabbed two goals against the Toffees to put him in contention.

Justin Kluivert – CAM – Bournemouth – Setting a record for a Premier League hattrick of penalties, expect Kluivert to make the bench of the TOTW at the very least.

Cole Palmer – CAM – Chelsea – What more can be said about Cole Palmer after the last season and a half? The England hotshot scored, assisted, and earned POTM in Chelsea’s 3-0 win.
