The Team of the Week promotion has returned to the FIFA Ultimate Team servers!

If this is your first time playing, don't stress, Team of the Week (commonly known as TOTW) is an easy concept to get your head around.

For those who don't know here's a quick overview: Every week the FIFA Team pick a 'Team of the Week' made up of 23 players who played out of their skins in real fixtures over the past week. These chosen few will receive an upgraded player card in Ultimate Team.

For example, if Cristiano Ronaldo or Romeu Lukaku bangs in a hat-trick in real life, chances are, they'll get a TOTW card with improved stats the following week.

The only exception to the rule is domestic cup competitions, which do not count towards TOTW selection criteria.

So without further ado, here's everything you need to know about FIFA 22's NEXT Team of the Week Squad.

Plus, if you're still missing out on all the action, you can buy your copy of FIFA 22 here.

FIFA 22 TOTW 26 Release Date

The release date is easy, as we know it's confirmed for Wednesday, March 16th, since every Wednesday is the release date for the game's new TOTW squads.

As is usual, the TOTW stars will remain in packs for one week, before being replaced by the next TOTW the following Wednesday.

In this case, TOTW 26 will be removed on Wednesday, March 23rd at 6pm BST, replaced by TOTW 27 cards.

FIFA 22 TOTW 26 Predictions

So who is in line for an appearance in the 26th instalment of the FIFA 22? Let's take a look:

Cristiano Ronaldo (92 OVR)

The day has finally come. Cristiano Ronaldo is in line for a FIRST TOTW appearance since returning to Manchester United.

The Portuguese forward shook off the injury troubles that left him out of last week's Manchester derby, scoring a fantastic hat-trick as the Red Devils beat Spurs 3-2 at Old Trafford.

Thomas Partey (85 OVR)

Arsenal's Thomas Partey was the hero for the Gunners on Sunday, as he delivered a goalscoring, MOTM performance in their 2-0 victory over Leicester City.

He too should be rewarded with his first Team of the Week card of the year.

Victor Osimhen (85 OVR)

Serie A hopefuls Napoli kept the pressure on the league-leading AC Milan thanks to Victor Osimhen's double in Verona.

The Nigerian grabbed both of Napoli's goals in their 2-1 victory over Verona on Sunday, leaving himself in contention for a TOTW appearance.

ALL Confirmed FIFA 22 TOTW Squads

For anyone curious about who featured in the games past TOTW squads, check out the below gallery.

The most recent squad confirmed by EA Sports was FIFA 22 TOTW 25.

EA's latest TOTW addition to FIFA 22 is 'featured items' and they could come into play from this week.

Any player whose base item is rated less than 80 is eligible to be named a featured TOTW player, which results in heftier upgrades than we have seen in years past.

Instead of a standard rating upgrade, featured items will be handed a larger boost, with any future upgrades based on this boosted rating.

An example of how these cards work can be seen below.
