I won the first game 3:2 on home pitch with 4-4-2 Narrow Diamond,tomorrow I play the second leg at his pitch.
----------ST----------
AML-------------AMR
--------MC-MC-----
DML------------DMR
-----DC-DC-DC-----

Flat Formation, but possible add down arrows on DML and DMR to boost defence if required.
Short or mixed passing, down both flanks, with fast defenders use offside trap, pressing whole pitch in attacking mentality OR
normal or defensive mentality, pressing own half with force counter and mixed passing.

4-5-1V Motivated

-------------ST-----------
AML----------------AMR
-----MC--------MC-------
--------DMC(UP)--------
DL(UP)---DC---DC-----DR(UP)

The 4-5-1V Style Motivated is also another option to use against the 4-2-2-2 formation. ... but down both flanks here is the best time to select it with long passing.
