It seems to me that your opponent want to go defensive and play counterattack with his AMC as a ball feeder. I think it would be easily to stop his AMC by controlling the midfield with 4 or 5 midfielders. And since he removed his DMC and now has only one MC, try hitting him in the center.
Would you say I should stick to the 4-5-1v?
Just looks like he's short of players and is putting his only available players into their preferred positions.
If I were you, I'd concentrate on putting my strongest team out, and not worry about countering his formation.
I have a lead so should I counter attack 4-5-1v?
the guy make me laugh .. and actually i think his tactics is genius :D
good luck .. not sure what i can say ... you sure need 4-1 DMC, then the QS is should you control the mid and play 4-1-4-1 / 4-5-1V or need more attackers, so 413W2? or attack him centrally with 4-1-2-3? .. am not sure
Your opponent will use 5 defenders, so I think playing with crosses from the flanks to your sole ST will probably like playing heads or tails of a coin. If I were you, I would go for 4-3-2-1 X-mas tree and attack on the middle with short passing. But it will depend on your current squad and your playing style.
I'll go 4-5-1v and hope it goes well. :) If I get an away goal he'll need to score to win 3-1.
Butterfly him, I had to face that formation in 1st game of CL and only had players to play butterfly due to injuries, I won 3-1 :) red arrows on both AMs and hard attacking.
He's changed it again!

I don't have DML or DMR as I rarely ever use them.
Don't be put off by the asymmetric formations, although they can be the hardest to beat.
Up against 3 ST and an AMC you already know you need at least a DMC + 3 or 4 defenders. He only has 1 MC so effectively any 2 MC or 3MC would kill him easily. You also don't want to be playing an AMC so AML/AMR will exploit his weak spots.
I have 2 to suggest. 3-5-2 v formation... or 3N-1-3N-2W-1. But I would rather go with the first one,
4-5-1 v sucks against 3 striker formations so don't try it.
Is 3-5-2v what I should be doing when I'm protecting a lead?
Have you considered 4-5-1 flat? that way you will dominate the midfield and I would not advise you play with 3 defenders if he palys 3 ST and AMC. It feels abit too risky. From the looks of his formation I think he is playing defense mentality with counter attack.Quote:

Hey I won 0-1 on the counter which makes it (2-0) on aggregate :D 4-5-1v worked fine.
