🎯 What TOTW Cards Do
Each week, EA replaces standard versions of select players in packs with special in-form cards that feature stat boosts based on their real-life performances.
These upgraded items remain in packs for one week only, until the next TOTW drops every Wednesday at 6 PM GMT.
Scoring goals, providing assists, or delivering elite defensive performances all count toward earning a TOTW card — and sometimes, players even receive a positional change to reflect their real-world roles.
💰 What to Do With TOTW Cards
If you pack one of these boosted players, you’ve got a few choices:
- Quick Sell for around 10,000 coins
- List on the Transfer Market for a profit
- Hold for SBCs, where in-forms are often required
- Use them directly in your Ultimate Team squad
Once the next TOTW rolls out, these cards vanish from packs — meaning your only shot afterward will be on the secondary market.
⚡ Final Thoughts
With stars like Declan Rice, Lucas Paquetá, and Antony headlining TOTW 8, this week’s lineup offers a strong mix of elite midfielders and high-pace attackers perfect for early-season squads.
If you’re chasing in-form upgrades or SBC fodder, now’s the time to rip those packs before they disappear next week.
