long pass, pressing in own half and going through mid? plz feel free to critizie this formation (constructive) and make suggestions

its me as first placed vs the second place so i HAVE to win ^^ im close to 4 stars ahead on average and as long as im not countered by formation i should be probably winning.

I would go for the butterfly:

--------ST-------
AML----------AMR
----MC----MC----
DML----------DMR
----DC-DC-DC----

You'll attack down the wings, red arrows on AMs, blue arrows on MCs. Defensive mentality to start with, own half pressure, normal/hard tackling, long passes, counter attack, no offside traps. I prefer this formation over yours because his midfielders will all be triple marked, zonal marking of course.

Handle it like a 4-4-2 Formation and use 4-5-1V without Offside trap! Depending on your Defence Stats it's possible to play only with 3 DCs in 3-5-2V Formation. Give him fire in attacking mentality down both flanks.
