Binh Dinh team has many advantages when hosting Hanoi Police in the 20th round of compensation matches, taking place on the evening of June 3. They have a full force, playing at home.
Meanwhile, the Hanoi Police team is missing many key players due to focusing on the national team and penalty cards such as Quang Hai, Quang Vinh, Nguyen Filip, Le Van Do...
Coach Mano Polking's team only brought Quy Nhon 16 players, including 2 goalkeepers. However, they still completely dominated the home team.
On the contrary, Binh Dinh team made many mistakes in defense and attack. They played with one more player for more than 30 minutes in the final 30 minutes of the match, but still conceded 2 more goals, to end the match with a result of 1-5.
This was also Binh Dinh's biggest loss since the beginning of the tournament. In the match that needed points to create an advantage in the relegation race, coach Tran Minh Chien's team had a poor match in all aspects.
This defeat caused Binh Dinh to face many disadvantages in the relegation battle. They could not have more points to break away compared to Da Nang or Song Lam Nghe An.
In addition, with 5 goals conceded, Binh Dinh's goal-scoring tally is (-18), just slightly better than Da Nang's team (-19). If the defense continues to play carelessly like in the last match, the possibility of Binh Dinh conceding more goals and being surpassed by Da Nang in the secondary index is completely possible.
Binh Dinh is still second to last after 24 rounds, however, in the last 2 matches they faced many disadvantages compared to Da Nang. According to the schedule, the team will meet Ho Chi Minh City (away) and Hanoi FC (home).
These are two teams with clear goals. The HCMC team needs points to stay in the league, while Hanoi FC needs to win to continue competing for the championship. With the current strength and form, it is difficult for Binh Dinh to create a surprise against the two opponents.
Meanwhile, Da Nang will meet Hong Linh Ha Tinh (away) and especially the final match against Song Lam Nghe An (home). These are two opponents that the Han River team can completely gain points for. Da Nang's form has also been better than Binh Dinh in recent times, when they won 3, drew 1 and lost 1 in the last 5 matches.
In general, Binh Dinh team has "lost a single goal, suffered a double" after losing to Hanoi Police in the make-up match. At this time, many fans of the home team at Quy Nhon Stadium were also thinking about the worst prospect after the end of this year's season, which is relegation.
