The FIFA 23 Team of the Week (TOTW) 9 squad will be released this week, with some big names in contention to feature.
Liverpool's Darwin Nunez scored twice in a 3-1 win over Southampton FC on the weekend, with a spot in the FIFA 23 TOTW 9 also set to give him an upgrade to his Ones to Watch player item. Arsenal's Martin Odegaard also scored twice as his double helped the Gunners stay top of the Premier League, whilst Manchester United's Christian Eriksen scored and assisted as his side won 2-1 against Fulham.
Real Madrid kept the pressure on Barcelona with a 2-1 win, and a goal and an assist from Toni Kross has put the German in a good position for a spot in TOTW 9. Paris Saint-Germain defender Nuno Mendes assisted twice in his side's 5-0 win, whilst players from Juventus, Valencia, Borussia Monchengladbach, and more could feature.
Before you strap in for our TOTW 9 predictions, you can catch up on last week's FIFA 23 TOTW 8 squad if you haven't already. The FIFA 23 TOTW 9 squad is set to be revealed and released into packs this week on Wednesday, November 16 at 6pm GMT / 1pm ET / 10am PT. The time and date are consistent every week, so we don't expect any deviation from that – unless EA says otherwise.
FIFA 23 TOTW 9 predictions
The FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) 23 TOTW 9 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. Players included in either of the last two TOTW line-ups are ineligible, as are players who have featured in a recent FUT 23 promo.
