His team's overall rating is equal to mine. He has very strong DMC and DCs, and his AMR is 6*. Other than that, his MCs are not as good as mine, and his DL and DR are also not very good (only 3*). I got a 2-2 draw at home in the 1st leg using 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly, mixed passing and focus on the flanks.

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

I do not have real DML and DMR, and used DL and DR for those positions in my last match against him. Since I got 2-2 draw at home, I really need to win at the 2nd leg away match. Is there any other formation for countering 4-5-1 V-Style besides 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly? Thanks.


facing the same 451 later on today. im a 24.8* and my opponent is a 29.3* 451 v style formation. i can manage any formation except one that requires an amr(i have none but can buy one). any ideas?? what worked for you??
