The home team usually plays in a 5-2-3, favoring offensive transitions and channeling their attack through the side aisles. The three men who will adopt a more offensive mission are Brennan Johnson, Philip Zinckernagel and Lewis Grabban, and the player responsible for leading his team’s attacks is the Englishman Jack Collback. It is possible that Jack Colback and James Garner play in the most central part of the field. Coach Steve Cooper will not be able to count on Max Lowe, Rodrigo Ely and Loic Mbe Soh because they are in the medical department.
