I have a cup game against a level 7. My team is slightly better, but he has a formation I've never come across.

Usually I don't ask for help but this match is the toughest I've had in a while. If I win, it would be the furthest I've ever progressed in the cup.

His formation....

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

I was thinking going for this to counter...

------ST-------
AML--------AMR
------MC------
DML--DMC--DMR
---DC-DC-DC----

or

------ST------
-----AMC-----
--- MC--MC----
DML--DMC--DMR
---DC-DC-DC---

What do you guys reckon?
