EA SPORTS FC 26 TOTW 13 Predictions: The Players Most Likely to Get Upgraded

With club football action delivering fresh highlights each week, the anticipation for Team of the Week 13 in EA SPORTS FC 26 Ultimate Team is heating up once again. Several stars put in standout performances — and if community predictions prove accurate, we could see some big upgrades hitting packs soon.

⚽ Top Predicted TOTW 13 Players

Here are some of the names analysts across fan sites and FUT communities are expecting to headline this week’s squad:

  • Harry Kane (ST)
    A strong attacking performance — including goal contributions and leadership up top — has many calling Kane a near-lock for TOTW. When he receives an upgrade, demand for packs usually follows.

  • Lionel Messi (Forward)
    Anytime Messi shines, FUT traders start buzzing. With another consistent showing, predictions place him firmly among the likely inclusions — a potential high-value card if selected.

  • Kamil Grabara (GK — Wolfsburg)
    Excellent shot-stopping and even a penalty save in Wolfsburg’s recent victory make Grabara one of the top sleeper picks this week. A goalkeeper boost like his can be major for players building strong early-budget squads.

  • Nico Schlotterbeck (CB — Dortmund)
    A clean sheet is impressive, but adding a goal on top of it elevates a defender’s TOTW chances significantly. His two-way performance may secure his place in the lineup.

  • Ingrid Engen (CB — Lyon)
    Another standout defender with a clean sheet and a goal to her name — and a reminder that women’s football continues to play a major role in FC 26’s Ultimate Team meta.

📈 What This Means for the FUT Market

If even a few of these predictions hit, expect:

  • High-rated attackers like Kane or Messi to spike in value

  • Tradeable versions of underrated players (like Grabara or Engen) to become sneaky investments

  • More pack-opening hype once the squad drops

For players managing coins carefully, this is your window to prepare — secure assets early, monitor market swings, and be ready for buying or selling opportunities.

⚠️ Predictions Are Not Confirmations

These picks come from top community analysts — but EA’s official TOTW selections may still surprise us.

Keep in mind:

  • Not every great performance gets rewarded

  • A late-week standout could push someone out

  • Official reveals typically arrive Wednesday, continuing the established release pattern

Use predictions as guidance — not guarantees.

🧠 Final Thoughts

TOTW always brings excitement to Ultimate Team, whether you’re a trader, a pack-chaser, or a squad-builder grinding for a competitive edge. TOTW 13 looks promising, and the names being floated could shake up the meta in meaningful ways. Keep an eye on announcements, plan your coin strategy, and be ready to act when the official lineup drops.
