I have good luck against this formation by using a 3 (dl arrow down, dc arrow down, dr arrow down), 1dmc arrow down, 4 (ml, mc, mc, mr) arrow up, 2 strikers up.

mentality - defensive, focus passing - down middle, passing style - mixed, counter -off, pressing - high, tackling - normal, marking -zone, offside - off.

Lost to this formation 2-1 at home first leg by using a wide formation as his. won second leg away 3-1 with this formation. I hope this helps. However, if you are like op..down 0-3..you might just maybe ..go for broke?

3 (dl, dc, dr) 4 (ml, mc, mc, mr) 3 strikers!!
