Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to feature in the FIFA 22 Team of the Week 26 (TOTW 26), after his hat-trick for Manchester United last weekend.
The FIFA 22 TOTW 26 squad will be revealed and released into packs at 18:00 PM GMT on Wednesday, March 16, 2022, with Ronaldo having a great chance of being included in the squad following his hat-trick in United's 3-2 win against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday evening. This is despite the five-time Ballon d'Or winner being included in a recent promo release, the FUT Birthday Team 1, but is still expected to receive an in-form on Wednesday, in what would be his first in-form in FUT 22 so far.

Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey could also feature in the FIFA 22 TOTW 26 squad this week, in what would be his first in-form player item in FUT 22, after scoring once and helping his side keep a clean sheet in the Gunners' 2-0 win over Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
The other Premier League players in contention for a FIFA 22 TOTW 26 place this week include the likes of Wolves defender Conor Coady, West Ham winger Andriy Yarmolenko, Aston Villa full-back Matty Cash and more.

FIFA 22 Team of the Week 26 (TOTW 26) predictions
The FUT 22 TOTW 26 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 26 prediction, so there is no guarantee that any players mentioned below will be included.
- GK: Oliver Baumann (Hoffenheim) - 84
- RB: Matty Cash (Aston Villa) - 82
- CB: Mathias Ginter (Borussia M'Gladbach) - 87
- CB: Conor Coady (Wolves) - 82
- CM: Dani Parejo (Villarreal) - 87
