Hanover S1 - First Team
Expectations
- Achieve promotion to the Bundesliga 1
Formation
- Change formation to a 4-4-1-1
- This formation allows a more defensive formation that gives solidity to a vital promotion season (defense record is the most important in promotion challenges)
- This formation allows key players to operate in the midfield and gives a strong core to the starting squad
Tactics
- Strong aerially dominant strikers win headers in the box from crosses
- Quick wide midfielders get on the outside of the opposition fullbacks to get crosses into the strikers
- CAM is great on the ball and two footed so can create opportunities from outside to the box to shoot
- Central midfielders are balanced with Stendera being a ball playing progressive option and Bakalorz/Prib being a more defensive option
- Full backs support the attack but are primarily defensive minded for this season (right side more attacking than the left)
