3w-2-2w-1-2

Facing the league's leader tomorrow. He's playing 3W-2(DMC)-2W-1-2. Counter formation table suggests 3W-5-2 V, but he's almost 3 points better than me, so I don't know if I dare to risk playing with 3 defenders.

I'm thinking of playing good old 4-1-4-1 with long passing, or maybe 3W-1-4-2 (which would be 3W-5-2 V, but with ML/R instead of AML/R).

What would be your suggestions?

I think 4-1-4-1 is better than 3W-1-4-2 . You have 4 defenders instead 3 that can help you a lot

That's what I was thinking. Thanks, I'll try 4-1-4-1. :)
