Counter 3w-1-3n-3

How can I counter this formation ?? My team is weaker 2 stars.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

3-5-2 defensive mentality, blue arrows on mc, red on ml/mr, mixed or long passing, force counter attack, zonal marking.

Thanks. What about to play 3-5-2 V with red arrow on DMC or would it be better to play with 3n MC's ??

Any suggestion fellas????

Both formations are good on paper, so if you have players that can play both wide mildfield and wide attacking mildfield, try both formations during match, or maybe 3n-1-4-2.

hi, im in a similar case, 3W-1-3N-3 (3 ST's) but my team is stronger by 1 or 2 stars (he have weak defenders).. what would you suggest? i was thinking in 3-1-4-2 or 4-5-1V, but i dont want to lose the midfield

@scigo
I would suggest 3n142, start match with normal mentality, high pressing, offside trap, passing through wings. If needed, you can switch later to attacking mentality or even formation to 352V/352/3n3n2w2 to catch result or 451V/4141 if you want to pretect result

i havent played it yet.. its in 2 hours. Still not decided if use a 4-1dmc-4-1 formation or 3n-1-4-2 like you said haha

he has a weak DR (VERY weak... im talking about 3 stars. Also his DC is 2 stars, but with Wall ability)... so im thinking of attacking "left flank" with a ML motivated.
