Best counter to 4-3N-3 ?

I'm up against this opponent in the Champions league and have to win this match to stay alive in the comp. He has straight wins in his League and a GD of +26.

On paper mine is the stronger side, 20 to 15.8 average. He won our first game 2:1.

What formation do you think I should use. I'm expecting he will use his favourite 4-3n-3 though I noticed he he sometimes used 4-4-2 classic. The latter I would counter with 4-4-1-1 but not sure what to do with 4-3n-3.

Any advice on formation and orders appreciated.

4-5-1v. Attack down both flanks (red arrows on DL/DR/AML/AMR). Zonal/Own half/ Mixed passing/ Normal mentality/ Normal attacking/Counter ON/Offside OFF.

If he switches to 4-4-2, then 4-5-1v should also suit to counter.

Expose his flanks either way.

Thanks for the advice. This is what I did.

Formation: 3N-3W-1-1-2 with Arrows on the forwards and Arrows on all backs.
Orders: Attacking/Mixed/Own/Normal/Mixed/Zonal
Result: I won the match 5:1
;)

Goodjob, personally i just think you was unlucky first leg lol

There r many option. 4-1-4-1/narrow diamond/3-3MC-2AML/AMR-2.

3n-3w-1-1-2?, 3dc + 1dmc + 1dmr+ 1dmc???, you played with only 1 mc?

Yes. My defence took care of his strikers I guess and once they got possession I dominated up the middle. Who knows? There are too many unknown variables but I'll try this strategy again against the same formation even with a stronger opponent.
