FIFA 22 Team of The Week Predictions: Week 14
Hello and welcome to week 14 of our TOTW Predictions. Okaaaaaaay, let’s gooooo.
Last week we actually got a decent result for TOTW Predictions. My gamble with Militao didn’t work out, so we move on. Apart from Mbappe exclusion – it was a good week and Sterling inclusion caught me by surprise.
So let’s see what this week will bring to us. It was hard and easy at the same time to write this week predictions. Mostly due to COVID cases in PL, where a lot of games got canceled, so a lot less games and players to choose from. But we still had loads of choices and we can even get a very nice red pick.
KDB performed the best in my eyes vs Norwich midweek with 2 goals in 7-0 smashing. Mid-week performance by Serge Gnabry was one of the best this season with 3 goals and 2 assists. Apart from them – I can’t see a lot of players being worth more than discard prices, so let’s just cover them fast. Oh, there’s possible Cuadrado who got a goal in 2-0 win, so yeah, he can be very nice option for right-back in Serie A squads.
Serie A overall lead this week’s defense: Rrahmani was very solid vs Milan and didn’t allow Ibra and Giroud to do anything. Smalling was solid vs Atalanta and got 1 goal too! Smalldini under Mourinho is back. Also, Deulofeu was POTW with 1 goal and 1 assist and if he’ll get featured TOTW – he might be one fun option. And Calhan continues his insane form with 2 assists in 5-0 win on Friday.
Moving on to La Liga – we have Gerard Moreno with 2 goals and 1 assist, Ivan Rakitic who scored a banger vs Atletico Madrid and kept Sevilla in title race. There are few options on the bench from La Liga, but I doubt that anyone interested in those players. But yeah, Jorge Molina broke Juanfran record of oldest hat-trick in La Liga. Oh, and Ledesma kept Cadiz clean-sheet vs Real Madrid and stopped their 10 game winning streak.
In PL, apart from KDB – it’s pretty easy. Pickford for his game against Chelsea, Martinelli for his game against Leeds (poor Leeds). And… I picked Saiss for his game against Chelsea, where they drew 0-0.
That’s probably it from very good options. Bundesliga lacked some big performances, apart from Bayern. BVB and Leipzig lost, Bayer lost too, so no one to choose. So yeah, that’s my TOTW choices.
Hopefully we’ll see some surprises and TOTW would be a bit better than what I’ve listed.
Good luck with your packs.
