Women’s football continues to rise, and the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) remains at the heart of the movement in the United States. The 2024 season was a landmark campaign, drawing an average attendance of over 11,000 fans per match — the highest in league history. With momentum building, it’s only fitting that EA Sports FC 25 celebrates the best talents from the NWSL with a Team of the Season (TOTS) promo.
The NWSL season runs from March to November, unlike European leagues such as the WSL or Liga F. In 2024, Orlando Pride dominated, winning both the NWSL Shield and the Playoffs for the first time ever. Their success was powered by standout individual performances, many of which are expected to be honored in the upcoming EAFC 25 TOTS.
The NWSL TOTS is expected to drop on Friday, May 30th, likely alongside the Serie A TOTS. Based on form, stats, and existing EAFC 25 content, here are our predictions for the players who could feature.
The NWSL’s attacking stars truly stole the show in 2024, with breakout performances and highlight-reel moments across the board.
Trinity Rodman (Washington Spirit) impressed once again, with 8 goals and 6 assists. Still only 22, she’s been linked to Arsenal and Chelsea and remains a fan favorite in Ultimate Team. Her 95-rated TOTS card will be lethal.
Sophia Wilson (née Smith) led the Portland Thorns with 12 goals and 6 assists. Already a TOTY and FUT Birthday star, she’s expected to receive a 96-rated striker card.
Barbra Banda was the key figure in Orlando Pride’s title win. The Zambian striker recorded 17 goals and 7 assists — earning her the BBC Women’s Footballer of the Year. Expect a 94-rated powerhouse card.
Temwa Chawinga (Kansas City Current) was the league’s top scorer with 21 goals in 27 games, earning MVP honors. Her TOTS version could be rated as high as 96, a huge upgrade from her only special card so far.
Predicted NWSL TOTS Attackers:
| Name | Position | Club | Nation | Pred. Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trinity Rodman | RW | Washington Spirit | USA | 95 |
| Sophia Wilson | ST | Portland Thorns | USA | 96 |
| Barbra Banda | ST | Orlando Pride | Zambia | 94 |
| Temwa Chawinga | LW | Kansas City Current | Malawi | 96 |
All three of our predicted midfielders represent the USA — fitting for a nation that continues to lead the world in women’s football.
Samantha Coffey (Portland Thorns) had a standout year as a deep-lying playmaker and defensive rock. Her base card was already well-rounded, and her TOTS version could become a meta pick with a 92 rating.
Rose Lavelle (Gotham FC) scored eight goals and helped her team reach the playoff semifinals. Her existing Winter Wildcards LB card was popular, and a 94-rated CAM version will elevate her further.
Croix Bethune, the 2024 NWSL Rookie of the Year, was electric for Washington Spirit with 5 goals and 10 assists. Her TOTS card, predicted at 93, should be elite — especially if it builds on her Future Stars version.
Predicted NWSL TOTS Midfielders:
| Name | Position | Club | Nation | Pred. Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Samantha Coffey | CDM | Portland Thorns | USA | 92 |
| Rose Lavelle | CAM | NJ/NY Gotham FC | USA | 94 |
| Croix Bethune | CAM | Washington Spirit | USA | 93 |
Orlando Pride’s championship run was built on defensive excellence — they conceded just 20 goals in 26 matches, the fewest of any team in the league.
Anna Moorhouse led the way with 14 clean sheets, five more than any other goalkeeper. The English shot-stopper’s composure and reliability should earn her a 93-rated TOTS card.
Emily Sams, also of Orlando, was named in the NWSL Best XI for her versatility at both center-back and full-back. Her TOTS card could hit 92-rated.
Kaleigh Kurtz (North Carolina Courage) and Casey Krueger (Washington Spirit) round out the defense. Both were dependable and consistent all season.
While these defenders may not all fit the current meta due to the game’s focus on strength and pace, they offer unique squad-building opportunities — especially for fans of the women's game.
Predicted NWSL TOTS Defenders:
| Name | Position | Club | Nation | Pred. Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anna Moorhouse | GK | Orlando Pride | ENG | 93 |
| Emily Sams | RB | Orlando Pride | USA | 92 |
| Kaleigh Kurtz | CB | North Carolina Courage | USA | 92 |
| Casey Krueger | LB | Washington Spirit | USA | 93 |
