help facing 4-1-3W-1 (LM/RM)

i read lots of articles here regarding how to face this formation

4-1-3W-2 (LM/RM)

.. am gonna play stronger side than me in CL in Qurter final , so want to be ready from now
as far as i read only suggestions were :

3N-1-4-2 (which i feel will expose my wings to his LM/RM and will put only 3 CB facing his scout Striker .. so will not work)
3N-2W-2-2W-1 (this formation never work for me ... cost me a title .. and again same issue with 3 CB vs 2 scout ST.. not wise)

i don't get why no one suggesting 442 or 451?
i think both can do better and are more balanced

anyone with a different opinion or suggestion ?

4-1-3-1? If my math is right, then one of your opponent's players recieves red card one minute before the match has even started...

oh u r right .. sorry let me fix that

What about 3N-2W-3MC-2?

I believe that's played with mixed focused passing. Add red arrows to DML/DMR and ST

my problem with it is it will leave 3Cbs facing his 2 scout strikers, and it don't use my strongest side which is my 2 wingers who are best 2 players in my squad

this could be best the option that fit my style .. still have a problem with 3N at back .. his strikers are scouts .. alike your ones 3x2 will be risky
the other difference is his team is 4 point AVG wise better than mine and he watch his matches

use 4-1-4-1 with defensive settings or 3-1-4-2 with offensive settings. i'd suggest the former if ur worried about his offensive players. play deep with long balls, use counter.

don't worry about best players. i dont pick my team that way. i pick a formation and then pick the players. ur best players only perform when they have space to work so when ur playing a superior team, a - they're not as good as they might be and b - ur picking formation based on players which is never wise against a better team.

neither me .. but in my opinion his weakness are in the mid bcz he has only 3, this is why am tempted with 5 in mid to control it

am the master of 4141 and its variations but my problem is the DMC will be a lose of space , and he will be solid at flanks which will reduce my chances unless i dominate him more thus creating more chances and reducing his ones

hmm played a kind similar formation today , but with 1AMC and 1 ST in different sides instead of 2 STs
he was watching his game and was playing around and 4141 seem to work the best, 451 sucked .. let us see how it will work in CL when we will meet in a 10 days time
