Kevin De Bruyne and Reece James could both feature in the FIFA 22 Team of the Week 25 (TOTW 25) on Wednesday.
With the FIFA 22 TOTW 25 squad set to be released at 18:00 PM GMT on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, Manchester City midfielder De Bruyne looks certain to be awarded an in-form following his superb individual performance against Manchester United in the Manchester derby. The Belgian scored twice and registered an assist in City's 4-1 win over their local rivals on Sunday, and could be awarded a 93-rated FUT 22 TOTW in-form item, which would be his second in-form in FUT 22 so far.

Chelsea defender Reece James could also be named in the FIFA 22 TOTW 25 squad, following his goal, assist and clean sheet in the Blues' 4-0 win against Burnley, in what could also lead to his 87-rated Headliners item being upgraded. His teammate Kai Havertz is the other contender for a TOTW place after scoring a brace in the same game, but James looks more likely to be included.
Players from Inter, Lille, Leicester City, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Benfica, Brentford and Celta Vigo could also be included this week. Here are Mirror Football's FIFA 22 TOTW 25 predictions.
FIFA 22 Team of the Week 25 (TOTW 25) predictions
The FUT 22 TOTW 25 line-up will be picked on single performances only, so goals and assists are not added cumulatively within the TOTW period.
Also, note that performances in domestic cup competitions do not count towards TOTW selection criteria. Only one player from any one team can be included in a TOTW line-up, barring exceptional circumstances. Also note that players included in either of the last two TOTW line-ups are ineligible, as are players who have featured in a recent FUT 22 promo.
This is just a FUT 22 TOTW 25 prediction, so there is no guarantee that any players mentioned below will be included.
- GK: Kasper Schmeichel (Leicester City) - Clean sheet in 2-0 win
- LB: Alex Grimaldo (Benfica) - Goal in 2-1 win
- RB: Zeki Celik (Lille) - Goal, assist, clean sheet and MOTM in 4-0 win
- RWB: Reece James (Chelsea) - Goal, assist and clean sheet in 4-0 win
- CM: Luka Modric (Real Madrid) - Goal and assist in 4-1 win
- CAM: Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) - Two goals, one assist in 4-1 win
- RM: Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) - One goal and one assist in 3-2 win
- ST: Joao Felix (Atletico Madrid) - Two goals in 3-1 win
- ST: Ivan Toney (Brentford) - Three goals in 3-1 win
- ST: Iago Aspas (Celta Vigo) - Two goals and one assist in 4-3 win
- ST: Lautaro Martinez (Inter) - Three goals in 5-0 win
As always, more than 11 players had good individual games over the weekend, so other players that could feature in TOTW 25 are Danny Ings, Kai Havertz, Carlos Soler, Jamie Vardy, Renato Sanches, Mikel Merino, Sebastian Haller and Gelson Martins.
