How to beat 4-4-1-1?

So tommorow Im playing CL final match against the guy below and I need help. What formation to use?

I thought about:
3-5-2
3W-2N-3W-1-1
3W-1N-4-1-1
4-1-4-1

Attachment 7323

I prefer to use 3N-1-4-2 (3dc, dmc, 4midfielder, 2st) Normal mentality, mixed focus, own half, long passing, zonal marking. And i think you should heal ur striker ;)

ML and MR are now attacking wingers,even they've red arrows.You can stop them with DML and DMR.Play with 4-5-1 V style formation with red arrows on DL/DR/MC/MC/AML/AMR attacking mentality pressing your own pitch mixed passes from the flanks with normal tacklings.

I have to score too in order to win and I cant do that with only one striker against that strong team, so Ill play with 2 strikers, or one striker and one AMC.

Why people are thinking that if you have only one striker you are not scoring too much.Reverse-If you have only one striker,you can balance your team better to score more goals.If you have AML and AMR with red arrows,they're scoring more goals than Strikers.

I also have bad experience playing 4-5-1 v style against 4-4-2 and 4-4-1-1 is very similar

It looks like 4-4-1-1 is similar like 4-4-2 but for real,this tactic is very different cuz this AMC can be very useful if your opponent doesn't have DMC.In my oppinion 4-4-1-1 doesn't have anything similar like 4-4-2.

I used 4-5-1 V style to counter 4-4-1-1 in champions league final, it worked for me. I won only with 1-0 but I had a lot of good chances. I followed sdw's advice with the red arrows and team settings. However I would play a little more defensive if his attackers are significantly better then my defenders.

it's a mistake to think that 1 striker isn't enough. A formation with 2 wingers makes it up. I have 4-5-1 V style and i usually win 5-1, 3-0, 2-0 etc. I even won 14-0, 8-0, 9-1. But well, if you still want 2 strikers, use hexagon (4def, 2MC, AMR,AML and 2 ST)

3W-2N-3W-1-1

should counter your opponent down the flanks .

I think Best Formation Against 4 4 1 1 is 4 5 1V and I Also Followed sdw Advise and Also Won a 1-0 Vs 4 4 1 1 Hats of to you SDW.
