I personally like the modified 3(dl-dc-dc)-1-4-2 or 3(dl-dc-dc)-5-2 V-style here. 3 defenders marking 2 strikers, with a DL marking his right flank, plus helping against the 2 ST. DMC and 2 MC's mark his AMC and MC's. Then the wingers get after his flanks, feeding passes into the strikers.

The Narrow Diamond as Jan Danek mentioned above, probably counters this as well. Additional body in the midfield and your AMC isn't marked, while his is. MC's negate each other.

But since you've only got 1 ST available, 4-5-1 V-style or 4-1-4-1. Defensive or Normal, doesn't really matter much in my opinion which mentality you use, as long as the rest of the orders are correct.
