I started with my original team, with second striker red arrow to connect with midfield and disturb their DMCs. No supremacy for neither teams. They started quite good and I went down 1-0. Equalizer by my ML (second time this season as a decisive scorer). Half time they were up 2-1. I started second half by removing my DMC for another MC, switching to 3N-5-2. Things remain the same: sometimes they were storming my area, but got better scorer and went up 3-2. Until then my best scorer Millieras wasted 2 chances and my second striker missed 1 great chance. Then I moved to a conservative team switching to 4-5-1, where they were a little bit more dangerous than me.

Here are the final formations and stats.

I believe he had a bonus for the home game and the fact he was following the match (+5%). For the return match I hope I can get a bonus for my side. Still I am not sure what formation I can use; I will try your suggested 4-1-3N-1-1 and in case I will switch to 4-3N-1-2. Which order should I use? I was thinking:

Mentality: normal
Focus: centre pass
Pressing: whole pitch
tackles: hard
Passes: short passing
Defence: zonal
