3N-1-4-2, 4-4-2 Classic, 4-5-1 V-Style, 3-4-3, according to July 4th.
He's stronger than you so I assume he'll be doing the attacking and you- the defending.
Now you need to choose a formation that includes all of your best players, then you need to choose a formation that is good for counter attacks, because I don't think the 3-4-3 will be any good to you. Now... the 4-5-1 V-Style looks like the better option but if you've got good players for 4-2-2 then you should choose it.
You need to play defensive football, press your own half, and concentrate your attacks where he's weak. Slow fullbacks- down both flanks. Weak CMs? Put a red arrow on one of your CM's.
GL!
