How to beat 4-4-2 and 4-1-3-2 plz

[thibistin]

Hey

Plz I have two several matches tomorrow , I will play against two teams better than me ( I have 28.5 but opposite 32.5 and other 29.00 ) so

the player who have 32.5 play with 4-4-2 flat

----st----st
ML --- MC --- mc --MR
DL----DC---DC--DR

and the other player play with 4-1-3-2

---ST---ST---
AML---AMC------AMR
-------MC-----
DL----DC---DC--DR


So for me , I play with 4-4-2 defensive mentalty and sometimes 3-4-3 attacking mentality

I have just players for this formations I do not have AML or AMR or DMC or AMC player


SO what this the best formation against 4-4-2 and 4-1-3-2 plz

Thanks

4-5-1v defensive

4-5-1v defensive

OP said he doesn't have AML/AMR - so any V formation is out...

3N-4-1-2 for the 4-4-2 Classic. EDIT: no AMC - damnit... 3N-4-3? 5-3-2?

The 1 MC formation is a weird one, I would be tempted to pack defence and use something like 3N-2(DML/DMR)-3N-2 or 3W-2(DMC)-3W-2, but if OP hasn't got AM or DM players then options are limited.

If OP could post a screenshot of his squad, then we could help further...

My bad

Either mirror his formation or invest in players... This season 4-5-1v and ND seems strong against 4-4-2. Not sure about the other formation.

Hi everybody

I played against those two teams and I had that draws,

the team that played I played 4-4-2 against it with 4-1-3-1-1 although I did not DM and AM

I ended 1-1, I still have the return on Wednesday,


for the other, I played 3-4-3 as in the photo and I had also 2-2


pending good formation to beat or just win 1-0 against the 4-4-2 plz

Thanks

To beat a 4-4-2 you want a narrow formation, but you said you don't have a AMC so you wont be able to run the 4-4-2 ND.

Instead, I would suggest a 4-3(N)-3, so three MC's and 3 ST's if you have them.

--ST--ST --ST--
-----------------
--MC -MC- MC--
-----------------
-DL-DC-DC-DR-
-------GK-------

Mentality: Normal
Passing: Long, Through the Middle
Marking: Zonal (or your preferred choice)
Tackling: Normal (or your preferred choice)
Pressing: Own half
Counter-Attacks: On
Offside Trap: Off

Unlucky there, tactics and strategy can only do so much for you.

I lost my Semi-Final cup match to PK's after evening the aggregate in the 2nd leg.

Next time bud, suggestion: get players that covers all positions so you dont get stuck with little options.
