FIFA 22 Ultimate Team players have been eagerly anticipating the release of the 17th instalment of the Team of the Week, with players from across the globe seeing their stats boosted following stellar displays in their respective leagues.
Here, Sports Mole takes a closer look at the standout performers to make the cut this week, as well all the players to have been rewarded with a coveted in-form card.
Jude Bellingham - 84
It is always easy to forget that Jude Bellingham is still only 18 years of age, as the England international continues to perform beyond his years for Borussia Dortmund and starred for the Black and Yellow during their five-goal thriller with Eintracht Frankfurt at the weekend.
Bellingham contributed to a sensational comeback by rising highest to head home his side's equaliser with 87 minutes gone, and the former Birmingham City youngster also won seven ground duels and completed three successful dribbles in an all-action display.
Bellingham's second in-form of the game represents a great all-round option for those Bundesliga teams - with 76 shooting the lowest-rated statistic on his aesthetically pleasing 84-rated item, which also boasts 85 dribbling, 82 physical and 80 pace.
Marquinhos - 89
Donning the captain's armband with aplomb since the departure of compatriot Thiago Silva, Marquinhos was here, there and everywhere for Paris Saint-Germain to ensure that they would at least claim a point from their battle with Lyon in Ligue 1.
The centre-back won all three of his ground duels, posted two tackles, two blocks and two interceptions as well as a staggering 97% pass accuracy at the Groupama Stadium, with PSG surely more desperate than ever to tie their talisman down to improved terms.
Marquinhos is no stranger to special cards on FIFA 22 - already receiving one in-form, a Champions League Team of the Group Stage and Road to the Knockouts item - and this 89-rated TOTW is an attractive option in the heart of defence with 91 defending, 84 physical and 83 pace.
Aurelien Tchouameni - 84
The less said about Monaco and Nantes' goalless stalemate on the whole the better, but Manchester United and Chelsea-linked Aurelien Tchouameni was a driving force in the middle of the park as speculation over his next career move intensifies.
The Frenchman posted an 89% passing accuracy, won nine of his 13 ground duels, drew four fouls, made four tackles and three interceptions from the middle of the park, although that promising display did not translate into a precious three points for Les Monegasques.
Again, Tchouameni is another player in this TOTW to be handed his second in-form of the game - this time with an 84 rating - and he is another well-rounded player with 87 physical, 83 dribbling, 82 defending and 81 passing.
