EA FC 25 and Ultimate Team are here! I know this because EA has unveiled the much-anticipated Team of the Week 1 ahead of the sports title’s full release. The weekly promotion returns, and so comes a star-studded line-up of In-Form players to pack.
The world of EA FC has become incredibly bloated with new events seemingly every week now. The Ultimate Team calendar is packed (no pun intended) and ever-changing, but one promotion remaining steadfast is Team of the Week.
To get the blood pumping, we know the first full EA FC 25 TOTW, so let’s walk you through Team of the Week 1, who’s included, and take a look at their respective cards.
All players in EA FC 25 Team of the Week 1
Household names like Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele, Karim Benzema, and Lamine Yamal headline Team of the Week 1. As with all TOTW line-ups though, this barely scratches the surface of the IF players destined for UT packs.
Without further ado, here’s every player in EA FC 25’s TOTW 1 in Ultimate Team.

What is Team of the Week in EA FC 25?
EA FC 25’s Team of the Week is a weekly promotion rewarding the best individual performances of the week by players in their respective domestic competitions with a special, upgraded Ultimate Team card available in packs for one week only.
For example, if a player scores a hat trick on the weekend for a Premier League club, they are likely to have this achievement recognized by EA with a Team of the Week card the following week—also known as an In-Form. Once the new week TOTW is live in EA FC 25, these special IF cards can be pulled from most Ultimate Team packs.
A player’s base card is typically increased by several attribute points, making the IF card a lot stronger than a player’s base card—this also makes the card much more valuable if you’re looking to sell it on the market. This comes with the caveat of the TOTW card having an extremely low percentage of being obtained from packs though—with higher-rated IF cards having even longer odds.
When is Team of the Week in EA FC 25?
Team of the Week cards go into EA FC 25 Ultimate Team packs at 12pm CT / 6pm BST / 10am PT / 1pm ET.
Now and again TOTW’s launch might be delayed or EA pulls the trigger and goes slightly early, but, generally speaking, these are the start times for a new Team of the Week release.
That’s all for the first Team of the Week in Ultimate Team. Come back next week for the TOTW 2, and until then, check out more handy tidbits to do with EA FC 25: The best Ultimate Team starter squads and how to get Coins fast.
