FIFA 17 Ultimate Team: FUT Team of the Week 39 Predictions, Latest Pack Info

EA Sports will announce Team of the Week 38 on Wednesday, June 7, at 3 p.m. BST (10 a.m. ET), and the in-form players will be released into card packs at 6 p.m. BST (1 p.m. ET) later that day. Stats and ratings have been provided by FUTHead.com.
If a player's original rating is the highest available in bronze (64) or silver (74), his first in-form cannot feature an overall increase but will feature improved individual stats.
Christian Pulisic, USA
Borussia Dortmund forward Christian Pulisic further cemented his place among the top rising stars in the game when he bagged a brace for the United States as they saw off Trinidad and Tobago 2-0 on Thursday.
Major League Soccer's official Twitter account shared footage of the two goals as he tapped in from close range before finishing well from Jozy Altidore's through ball:
The 18-year-old is already influential for the national side, per ESPN's Paul Carr:
Pulisic last featured in Team of the Week 28, where he received an 81-rated card with an electric 90 pace. However, those who won the recent Daily Knockout Tournament were rewarded with a special 88-rated untradeable version.
His potential second in-form won't reach these lofty heights, but his 77 shooting is likely to surpass 80 and his 65 physical stat—the one real weakness on his first IF—could creep up to a slightly more useful 70.
Marek Hamsik, Slovakia
Hamsik is no stranger to featuring in the Team of the Week having done so on four prior occasions, as recently as TOTW 37.
The playmaker could be included once again, though, after a match-winning performance for Slovakia.
He helped the side open the scoring with a delightful chipped pass to Vladimir Weiss while under pressure from multiple defenders. A sublime free-kick doubled their lead.
His 89-rated IF's weakest stats were his pace and defending, and even they were both 80, making him an excellent all-rounder.
He also boasted outstanding base stats of 90 shooting, 91 passing and 92 dribbling, so any improvements will make him an even greater asset in midfield.
Robert Lewandowski, Poland
Like Hamsik, Lewandowski has already received four IFs this season, but he is continuing to produce the goods.
The striker book-ended his performance against Romania with well-taken penalties, the spot-kicks coming either side of a powerful header from a corner.
Cristian Nyari of Bayern Munich US shared the extent of his incredible form:
His 95-rated IF card contains frightening base stats such as 94 shooting, 93 dribbling and 92 physical, and with a further upgrade his 86 pace and 87 passing will take another step toward joining them in the elite 90 bracket.
