5) 4-2-3-1

A Balanced Formation!

Big teams like Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Milan use this formation to good effect. In FIFA 18 too these teams are fully equipped to perform better in this formation.A group of 5 midfielders gives the team good balance in attack and defence which can be empowered by a powerful strike at the front like Lukaku and Lewandoski. You can also instruct your wide midfielders to stay in attacking position or defend.

4) 4-3-3

An attacking formation!

This formation is preferred by likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool and PSG. This formation is arguably the most loved formation in FIFA. This formation demands fast attacking players who can also dribble quickly. The formation can also be adapted into a 4-1-4-1 or 4-5-1. Players like Neymar, Ronaldo, Sadio Mane thrive on these type of formations.

3) 5-2-3

Play like Conte!

This formation was mostly used by Antonio Conte last season with Chelsea which was then followed by Mourinho and Pep Guardiola using it in some games.Even Arsene Wenger was tempted to change his back four policy.

In this formation, three strong defenders make sure that there is not much room for the attackers to pop in.This formation has just one drawback that it demands too much from the wingbacks, due to which only the teams that have pacey wingbacks with great stamina can play this formation!

2) 4-4-2

Leicester won the league with this formation!

This formation is no longer a formation that is used by a large percentage of top class clubs but still, this formation has rendered a huge amount of success in recent years. Teams like Atlético Madrid, Monaco followed by Leicester have been using this formation successfully.

This formation gives you lot of options down the wing which in turn helps the two strikers beat the heck out of defenders.If you want to play Lukaku and Zlatan together then this formation is for you!

1) 3-4-2-1

Attack!Attack!Attack!

Down 2-0? Use this formation and change the settings to high pressure to thrash your opponent! Yes, there are more chances of conceding another goal but there are also more chances to score another! In the dying moments of the game, you can instruct your wide midfielders to stay forward in the tactics menu.
