FC 26 TOTW 7 Revealed: Full List of Cards

EA FC 26's Team of the Week (TOTW) 7 lineup has officially been revealed, featuring another powerful set of in-form cards that can reshape your Ultimate Team strategy. From midfield maestros like Jude Bellingham and Alexia Putellas to rock-solid defenders such as Micky van de Ven, this TOTW drop rewards real-life performances with in-game boosts that are already shaking up Division Rivals and FUT Champs lineups.

This guide will cover everything you need to know about TOTW 7 — including how to use these cards effectively, build squads around them, maximize your rewards, and understand the evolving meta of FC 26's gameplay.

What is Team of the Week (TOTW)?

Team of the Week is EA FC's way of recognizing top-performing footballers from real-world matches. Each week, a curated selection of players receives special in-form (IF) cards with upgraded stats. These cards are released into packs for one week, replacing their standard versions.

TOTW cards are valuable for several reasons:

Stat Boosts: Players gain +1 to +10 attribute increases.

Dynamic Value: Prices often spike early, especially for top-tier picks.

Squad Building Challenges (SBCs): Many SBCs require in-form players.

Weekend League Advantage: TOTW cards provide unique boosts under specific chemistry styles and tactical systems.

TOTW 7 is one of the strongest lineups yet — especially for hybrid squads that mix women's and men's football.

How to Play EA FC 26 Effectively — Core Gameplay Principles

Before breaking down individual players, it's essential to understand how to get better at EA FC 26 overall. The gameplay this year emphasizes possession play, tactical intelligence, and fluid team shapes. Gone are the days of pure pace abuse — success now depends on control and structure.

1. Ball Control and Directional Touch

Use Left Stick Dribbling (L3) for tight movement.

Combine L1/LB + R1/RB dribbling to manipulate space and invite defenders in before slipping past.

The new Precision Passing mechanic rewards perfect timing; use it to thread passes into tight channels.

2. Build-Up Play

Use formations like 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-2-1 to create natural passing triangles.

Utilize CDMs to recycle possession and draw defenders out of shape.

Time your trigger runs (L1/LB) to release attackers once the defense commits.

3. Defensive Awareness

EA FC 26's defensive AI punishes over-committing. Hold L2/LT jockey to contain, not chase.

Switch early using right stick player switching instead of spamming tackle.

The Press After Possession Loss tactic is strong this year — use it sparingly to avoid stamina loss.

4. Set Pieces & Finishing

Precision shooting and Timed Finishes (R1 + Circle) are crucial for top-tier scorers like Bellingham or Harder.

Learn corner and free-kick aiming using the reticle — curved deliveries are meta-efficient for headers.

Top 6 TOTW 7 Players and How to Use Them

1. Alexia Putellas (92 CAM – Barcelona Femení)

The Spanish playmaker is the crown jewel of TOTW 7. Her dribbling, vision, and passing make her one of the best central attacking midfielders in EA FC 26.

Best Position: CAM or CM in a 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-2-1-2 narrow.

Playstyle: Possession maestro. Use short give-and-go passes and let her dictate tempo.

Chem Style: Hunter (to boost pace/shooting) or Architect (for playmaking builds).

Tip: She excels at Timed Finesse Shots — aim for the far corner after fake shots inside the box.

2. Jude Bellingham (91 CM – Real Madrid)

Bellingham's TOTW card cements his dominance in midfield. He can defend, distribute, and attack with equal precision.

Best Position: Box-to-box CM or CDM in a 4-3-2-1.

Playstyle: Transitional dynamo — combine interceptions with driving runs.

Chem Style: Shadow for defensive pace or Engine for balance and agility.

Tip: Use manual jockeying with Bellingham to intercept through balls — his AI tracking is elite.

3. Katie McCabe (88 LB – Arsenal Women)

A powerful fullback who doubles as a secondary playmaker. Her in-form card is perfect for overlapping wing play.

Best Position: LB or LWB in a 3-5-2.

Playstyle: Offensive fullback — use overlapping runs and early crosses.

Chem Style: Anchor to maximize pace and physicals.

Tip: McCabe's left foot delivers elite curve — aim for early crosses into the 6-yard box.

4. Pernille Harder (87 CAM – Bayern Munich Women)

Harder's TOTW boost gives her elite balance and technical ability. She feels silky smooth on the ball.

Best Position: CAM or CF in a false 9 setup.

Playstyle: Agile creator — perfect for skill chaining and quick cutbacks.

Chem Style: Maestro for dribbling and shooting control.

Tip: Use the Heel-to-Ball Roll combo to glide through defenders inside the penalty area.

5. Micky van de Ven (84 CB – Tottenham Hotspur)

Speed kills, and Van de Ven's combination of pace and physicality makes him one of the best budget defenders in the game.

Best Position: LCB in a 4-2-2-2 or 4-3-3.

Playstyle: High-line defender with recovery speed.

Chem Style: Shadow to push him into elite-tier acceleration.

Tip: Pair him with a slower, more tactical CB like Konaté or De Ligt to balance your backline.

6. Amine Salibari (84 RM – Angers SCO)

The hidden gem of this TOTW — blistering speed and skill moves make Salibari dangerous on the counter.

Best Position: RM or RW in a 4-3-3.

Playstyle: Pace-driven winger for direct runs.

Chem Style: Deadeye to increase finishing and passing.

Tip: Use sprint-stop dribbles and low-driven crosses — his assists ratio is phenomenal.
