How to Win Against Any Formation?

What about 3-2-3-2

ST ST
MC MC(DOWN) MC
DML (UP) DMR (UP)
DC DC DC

Defensive - counter - mixed focus - mixed passing

I am facing a 4-3-1-2 wide 3 (4-3w-1-2):

DL-DC--DC-DR
ML---MC---MR
-----AMC
---ST--ST

and he can convert it to 4-1-3w-2 (i've seen him doing it in some matches, but his DMC is just 4 stars):

DL-DC--DC-DR
-----DMC
ML---MC---MR
---ST-ST

I've read that for the second one a 3-2w-2-2w-1 works well, but most probably he is going to start with the attacking formation (4-3w-1-2) and most probably change to the defensive one as soon as he gets the lead... i really don't know how to counter him.

I am usually playing 4-5-1 V formation, so if i change to 3-2w-2-2w-1 i have my DR and DL playing off position as DML DMR, which i don't really like. I was thinking that 4-5-1 V can be a decent counter, but not sure about it and no idea on how to put arrows or orders...

We both have an average score of 39-40 on field (almost 6 stars) and its the champions final!!

Thank you for the help!

Thanks but as i said i have no DML DMR... and cannot afford to play with off position players in a final...

maybe,
as long as he play with AMC 3-5-2
ST ST
ML(DOWN) MC MC (UP) MC MR (DOWN)
DC DC DC

Defensive - counter - focus through the middle - mixed passing.
When he plays with DMC:

Defensive - counter - focus mixed - mixed passing.

Same problem... i have only 2 DC, 1 DC-DMC, 1 DL, 1 DR, and only 2 MC and ML-AML, MR-AMR and 2 ST... The other player are only like 30 score so i prefer not to use them... Basically i cannot do much aside from 4-5-1 V, 4-4-2, 4-1-4-1 and so... So i am just saying is 4-5-1 V a good formation against 4-3-1-2 wide 3?

DL-DC--DC-DR
ML---MC---MR
-----AMC
---ST--ST

I know it can be, as 4-5-1 V does not have a clear counter, but basically the power will come from arrows and orders to counter his formation... DMC will not have arrows for sure to counter his AMC, AMR-L can have up arrows... but not sure about the rest. Orders i am guessin attacking, own half, both flanks, mixed passing and i can add counter if i get the lead and i go defensive. What you think?
