A little torn on whether or not to go for 1st place. I'll need a 3-0 victory at home to get it. I'll likely turn win bonus off and rest players but see how a specific formation works. Hopefully we will see him in the final.
Depends on which Group you're in. Second place in Groups B,D,F,H will get you into the top half of the draw, which, if you get to the final, gets some sort of priority when setting the match time for the Final, in my experience...
Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...
