FC 26 Daily Report: Ratings Reload, TOTW 4 Predictions, and Premier League POTM Leak

After a quiet weekend in EA Sports FC 26, Monday brings a wave of fresh updates and leaks that have the community buzzing again. From two new SBCs to a rumored "Ratings Reload" promo and early details on the next Premier League Player of the Month, there’s plenty to unpack for Ultimate Team players keeping an eye on value, performance, and investment opportunities.

1. A New Week, A New SBC Lineup

The first major addition this week is the return of the 78+ x2 Upgrade SBC, now once again available with unlimited completions. Its requirements remain straightforward—six rare gold cards plus a few common ones—making it an ideal way to recycle duplicate or low-value players.

While not a groundbreaking challenge, this SBC continues to be a reliable grind option for those looking to pack higher-rated fodder or potential special cards without heavy spending. Given its low entry cost and repeatable nature, most players will find it a solid use of untradeable golds lying around the club.

2. Player SBCs: Evander and Luhani Take the Spotlight

Two new player SBCs were also added to the game: Evander (FC Cincinnati, MLS) and Luhani (Atletico Madrid Femenino, Liga F). Both cards bring some interesting attributes, though neither appears to be a must-complete option based on current community feedback and value.

Evander offers a technically solid Brazilian midfielder profile but suffers from weak chemistry links due to the limited number of usable MLS options this early in the cycle. With average stats—80 pace, 83 shooting, and decent dribbling—he’s functional but not outstanding. His price point of around 12K FC coins makes him affordable but not particularly exciting for most teams, especially considering the chemistry challenges of integrating MLS players effectively.

Luhani, on the other hand, comes from the women’s LaLiga side Atletico Madrid Femenino. Her card offers better overall usability, with 88 pace, 83 shooting, and 85 dribbling, as well as a surprisingly strong 81 physicality rating. Female forwards have performed exceptionally well in FC 26 thanks to their fluid animations and quick dribbling mechanics, and Luhani fits that mold perfectly.

However, despite her solid in-game feel, the 50K FC coins cost makes her harder to justify. The main drawback remains the chemistry issue—Liga F cards are difficult to link unless you’re already running a women’s league hybrid or a Spanish setup. She’s fun, fast, and versatile (RW, CF, CAM), but not an essential upgrade.

3. A Hidden Gem: The 83-Rated Silver Evolution

Although no new Evolutions were introduced today, players who missed the weekend update can still take advantage of the "83 Silver Sprint" Evolution—an upgrade path designed to transform lower-rated silver cards into highly usable, pace-boosted options.

For just 7.5K, this Evolution offers excellent value. The reward structure adds notable pace and dribbling increases, making it ideal for silver squad events or early-season objectives. If you’re looking to build a creative lineup on a budget, this evolution is one of the most efficient upgrades available right now.

4. Ratings Reload: What We Know About the Next Promo

The most exciting rumor circulating this week revolves around a potential new promo event—Ratings Reload (or Ratings Refresh). This event is reportedly designed to update players’ overall ratings based on early-season performances, similar to the mid-cycle "Winter Refresh" events seen in previous titles.

There’s also speculation that the promo might overlap with or replace the usual Road to the Knockouts (RTTK) event. Traditionally, by early October, RTTK would already have entered its second week, but since EA has yet to release it, the community suspects a shift in the seasonal calendar.

Leaked lineups for Ratings Reload include several high-performing players whose base cards currently feel undervalued:

• Julian Alvarez (Manchester City) – Outstanding form and consistent goal involvement make him a strong candidate.

• Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) – Another standout with multiple goals and assists.

• Nuno Mendes (PSG) – Continues to impress with his pace and work rate.

• Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur) – A perennial fan favorite who’s off to a hot start.

• Juan Garcia Bartra (Barcelona) and Van de Ven (Tottenham) – Both recognized for recent strong defensive performances.

• Grealish, Bongi, and Toure – Potential inclusions offering pace-heavy or balanced upgrades.

If these leaks prove accurate, Ratings Reload could be one of the most impactful early promos of FC 26, introducing cards with meaningful stat adjustments and fresh chemistry possibilities.

5. TOTW 4 Predictions: Who’s Earning a Black Card This Week?

As another weekend of domestic football wraps up, Team of the Week 4 (TOTW4) predictions have begun to surface. Several trusted sources and community trackers have already aligned on a handful of standout performances:

• Moises Caicedo (Chelsea)

• Jadon Bongi (Dortmund)

• Donyell Malen (Dortmund)

• Jordi Alba (Inter Miami)

• Luis Diaz (Liverpool)

• Nelson Semedo (Wolves)

Additional possible inclusions: Josko Gvardiol, Declan Rice, and a few top women’s league players who stood out over the weekend. If the predictions hold, this could be one of the strongest TOTW lineups so far, combining elite-tier pace, Premier League coverage, and usable defenders.

6. Premier League POTM Leak: All Signs Point to Erling Haaland

Perhaps the most significant leak of the week is the near-confirmed reveal of Erling Haaland as the next Premier League Player of the Month (POTM).

According to multiple data miners, Haaland has won the fan vote and is set to receive his POTM SBC within the next week. Early reports suggest the SBC will feature seven segments and cost around 600K FC coins, mirroring last year’s pricing model.

While the card will undoubtedly boast elite finishing and physicality, the question of value looms large. With Haaland’s gold card already performing exceptionally well and trading under 100K FC coins, the SBC may appeal more to fans and collectors than to value-focused players.

Those looking for alternative target-man strikers might consider Zeki Amdouni or Kai Havertz, who both offer excellent price-to-performance ratios. Still, for Manchester City loyalists or Haaland enthusiasts, the POTM version will likely serve as a prestige upgrade worth completing.

7. Looking Ahead

This week’s content signals that FC 26 is finally hitting its live-service stride. Between evolving promos, consistent SBC rotations, and early leaks of fan-favorite cards, the game’s Ultimate Team ecosystem is becoming more dynamic by the day.

Players should keep an eye on:

• The official confirmation of Ratings Reload or RTTK, which will determine market movement.

• Potential price fluctuations around Premier League strikers ahead of Haaland’s POTM release.

• The next batch of Evolutions, which could reshape the early meta for budget and mid-tier teams alike.

The post-holiday slump may be over—but with EA tightening the release cycle and layering events, FC 26’s next few weeks could be some of the busiest yet.

Final Thoughts

While not every SBC or leak justifies immediate investment, the pattern emerging across FC 26 content is clear: balance and flexibility are key. Promos like Ratings Reload reward players who adapt, while steady SBC updates encourage smart club management rather than aggressive spending.

If these early October leaks pan out as expected, the coming days will bring one of the most diverse and exciting content waves of the season—proof that FC 26 is settling into its rhythm, with EA experimenting more confidently than ever before.
