It'll be my first champion's league final tomorrow and I am up against my friend playing 3N-5-2 FLAT.

I have a slightly better quality but he had a stronger midfield with 5 near scout level mcs and 2 5 star sts. His flanks are weak with 2 star ml/r and 2 side dc (not dr/l) 3 star. he also have a 4 star dc in the middle. I always lose in our previous encounters.

I have a near scout level mc and another near scout st. my defenders are all q20 but def quality up to 29. i also have some 4 star players, including 2mc , 1 amc/r and 1 aml/c and a dmc. 3 stars include dmc/l and dmr. my other players are injured....

The table of counter-formations says that i should use 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly but considering my team and his attacking mode thru the middle should i use 4-5-1 V-style instead?

(PS i really need to win this cuz im losing in my league becoz of too many injured players. theres a big chance i wont make it to the CLs next season)
