FIFA Infinity The Absolute FIFA Site
Welcome to the fifteenth edition of my weekly TOTW Predictions for FIFA 16. Last week saw a below par score of 10/23 selections correctly predicted from the official side, hopefully this week will see a return to the 15+ of recent weeks. Headlining this weeks side is Real Madrid duo Gareth Bale & Karim Benzema after their 10-2 rout of Rayo Vallecano. Bale grabbed most of the plaudits contributing to 5 of their 10 goals whilst Benzema sealed the victory along with adding the final damage with a second half hat-trick. If that wasn’t enough this week also see’s Mesut Özil after his 2 assist’s meant Arsenal beat Man City 2-1, Antonio Candreva as he scored both goals in Lazio’s 2-1 win over Inter Milan & Mario Mandzukic after he scored a brace in a 3-2 win over Carpi.
