Facing much stronger 4-4-2

[technotronic]

I have a semi-final match against an all scout team (Average 34 while I am 28) playing regular 4-4-2.
The match is away and the dude delayed it to 02:00 AM.
Any suggestions?

Play a very VERY defensive, counter attacking game.

I think of playing 4-5-1V. Hard defensive, mixed passing, own half, zonal, mixed, counter-on.
Red arrow on dmc. Any improvements?

Personally, if I expect to lose, I put blue arrows on everyone, maybe red for the ST, hard defending, passing wings or middle depending on your formation, own half, normal/hard tackling, zonal, long passing. Sometimes counter, sometimes no.

Thanks for the reply!
I don't expect to lose

I think you might, considering the team strengths. Can you get screenshots of both sides? I'd like to see at least the star levels.
