If you have strong wingers and striker i would play 4-5-1V or 4-3n-2w-1. In this way you protect your center and attack the flanks.
Go with normal mentaly, down flanks, mixed passing, normal or hard tackling ( hard gives you more posession but takes more stamina), own half, zonal and counter. Reds on dl, dr, aml, amr. Blues on dc's. I would not play attacking mode because your opp's formation is great to play with counterattacks. For you is important to play with counter. In this way you give him the ball and thats your chance to take away and score. And if he has good qualitydefenders its gonna be tough to score against a 5 man defence in normal way without counter.
Sorry for my english
Good luck
