Cup Final Help Needed

[Hamza Khan]

Opponent is using a wierd formation ... 3W-1-2W-1-3.
Its the cup final and I need to win.
Suggest me something guys.
I'm thinking 4-5-1V style but I'm not sure if two DC and one DMC is enough to contain three ST and an AMC. Also I needs the wings secure and attack ready too so I blv possibility of 3 man defence is not good.

What settings I shud use if I'm using a 4-5-1V ?

Or shud I use a different formation.

Please help.

Thanks

P.S. - I have losing my first leg semi 1-0 but I thrashed him 5-0 in second leg (he was 3W-5-2 flat and I played motivated 4-5-1)

He uses a flank-heavy formation so I wouldn't gamble in a flank attack formation such as 4-5-1 V.

Your opponent plays in a kind-of 3-4-3 diamond. The counter for 3-4-3 flat is 4-2-2-2 hexagon, so I would rather go for a 4-1(DMC)-3W-2 with mixed or through the middle attacking or a 4-1-4-1. Is he around the same level as you?

If I was in your position I would go 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond.

In my opinion, narrow diamond beats wide diamond and 3 wide in defence against your attacking 3 down the middle you should stand a good chance.

Punish him with possession with short passing, what's he gonna do park the bus with his one CB? Haha
