how to counter this? (urgent)

Hi all, in few hours will play a cup match against this formation.
Considering I don't have AMR/AML and my wings are weak, was thinking to play 5-1-2-1-1 just to contain the away match. Any better idea?

I played with against a similar formation for cup matches. 1st leg Won 4-2 with a 4-4-2. 2mc aml and amr. 2leg tied 3-3 but i used 4-1-2-1-2 formation.
I was at 27* averge rhe other team was 25*.

yes, with diamond my team is strong but I think is not so good to counter this. As told i don't have AML/AMR at the moment, working on it :)
the two teams are almost equivalent, and tonight I play away

Whats te avg of ur wimgs? at the time of the game i had 3* wings. Aml 21 and amr 23 avg.
even if ur wing arent that high they could help. I have lost to 4222 with 2 weak wings away game
So anything can happen. Just make sure ur morale and fitness is high. And watch the game so if the formation that u pick is not working u can change it.

Btw GOOD LUCK! Hope u get a good result

thanks, i play as said, sort out a draw 2-2. Now I wait him at home. I have new unsigned players hope to unlock them asap.

and what about this? Never met before. I'm thinking to play 4-4-2. Any suggestion?

U playing against that team? 442 can do it.

Im not a fan of counter tactics. This is what i normally play and it works well.
My 3 MC are playmakers and one of them can play amc. And my amc can play mc so i switch them around when need it.
