How to Win Against Any Formation?

[Chris Rath]

How to win this 3-4-2-1:

DC-DC-DC
ML-MC-MC-MC
AMC-AMC
ST

I need to win. Team is strong like mine.
How about tactics (passing, counter/offside, zonal/man to man...) ?

I would try to attack over the uncovered wing. Based on the formation I would suspect he attacks over the center.
With one striker 3 defenders and a defensive mid you should get stability there. 3 midfielders to cover his four: ML-MC-MR and 2 strikers.
That makes it a 3N-DMC-3W-2. As tactics: zonal defense, no offside trap, attack through left wing (since he has neither right back nor right midfielder). If he is as strong as you I would suggest normal mentality, mixed passing with pressure own half. Good luck.

No right sided player? Illegal formation if he doesn't have players on either flank

AML---------AMR
-----MC--MC---

You think this is ok?
And what tactics do you reckon? I was thinking defensive, both flanks, own half, mixed passing, zonal.

That's fine. Play with counter attack and you're sorted

sorry that i am replying, but i don't find the make new thread button. I am having a big problem, facing the 2nd of my league (i am 1st with 3 point dif) and we are about same ranking.
he is using 3-2-3-2
-----st---st--------
ml------mc-------mr
----dmc----dmc----
dl-------dc-------dr

First match in my place i faced him him 4-5-1 motivated. (dl/r up, ml/r up). All arrow players were dual-class could play the arrow role also. Had following game stats:
Home (me)-------Away (he)
61----posession------ 39
21-------shoot--------7
7------on target-------3
14%----efficiency-----67% (!!!!!)

and so i lost 1-2 . How to beat him now i play his home? thanks in advance
