Cautious
This mentality is a good starting strategy for matches in which you believe the opposition are the stronger team, but you still feel you can break with some regularity. In possession, the team will take slightly fewer risks with the ball, playing with a slightly lower level of tempo and urgency. However they will still commit numbers to counter-attacking opportunities when they arise. Out of possession, team will play a slightly deeper defensive line in order to absorb pressure.
