I've played yesterday against that formation :D. I'd suggest you to use some narrow formation. Mine choice was 4-3MC-2AMC-1, but I'd rather use 4-N.diamond, loop or 4-DMC-2MC-3. His middle is weak. If you would use 2AMC formation, then you should put red arrows on AMC's. Also alternative, more defensive options are 4-1-4-1 + through middle passing or similar formation with 2AMC instead of MC.
Please, post match review. Good luck! :)

There are 2 options for 451, flat which is clear and V style.
How to put 451 in a V-style ?
would appreciate if someone could post a pic of this please.
Further more, there are a lot of other styles like : Tower, Narrow diamond, butterfly etc., are there somewhere in this forum pics for each formation ?
Thank you in advance for your support.

I didn't see this message in time mate. I lost 1-0 to 3rd from bottom so embarrassing result.
I used 3-2w-2-1-2 and his AMC scored the goal so that's what I get for not watching the match.

Hello guys...I usually use this formation: GK-DL,DC,DC,DR-ML,MC,MR-AMC-ST,ST...please help me to optimize orders (and arrows)...thx..have a nice day! :)

Pretty much the same for 4-3n-1-2 attack and press high.

Attacking
Mixed
Short
High press
Hard tackling
Zonal
No counter
No offside

Thank you..I try it..:)

i think you should add counter against 3n-2w-2-2 , won 2-1 (home game) but had much better statistic
Attachment 58005Attachment 58006

@Myvalentine
No hard feelings, but those statistics aren't much dominant.
In this case, 3n52 flat or 3n142 would work even better because DML/R are much better in when countering AML/R than ML/R.
Btw. When you use 352 or 343 formations, don't forget to use whole pitch pressing (high pressing).

any advice on how to beat 3w-1-3n-2(AMC)-1?? Important cup match tonight.

I have no idea as I've never faced it but it's a very narrow formation with 1 striker.
I would try 3-5-2v or 3-1-4-2
