According to the initial match schedule announced by VPF, the match between The Cong Viettel and Binh Duong clubs in round 5 of V.League 2024-2025 will take place at 7:15 p.m. on October 26 at My Dinh Stadium.
However, according to the announcement of the National Sports Complex, from October 21, 2024 to November 5, 2024, My Dinh Stadium is involved in an event that was previously contracted by this unit. That leads to the match between The Cong Viettel and Binh Duong not being able to be held at My Dinh.
The army team has sent a document to the Vietnam Football Federation, Vietnam Professional Football Joint Stock Company, and Hanoi Department of Culture and Sports proposing the use of Hang Day Stadium as the home field for the match in round 5 of V.League 2024 - 2025.
This adjustment of the stadium for one match does not affect the regulations on licensing professional football clubs of the Asian Football Confederation.
Accordingly, the match between the two teams will take place at Hang Day Stadium, at 7:15 p.m. on October 25. Two days later, Hanoi Club will meet Hong Linh Ha Tinh, also at this stadium.
Currently, The Cong Viettel is temporarily ranked 7th on the rankings after 4 rounds. They have 2 wins against Hanoi FC (2-1), Hai Phong (3-2), tied Ho Chi Minh City 0-0 and lost 0-1 to Binh Dinh.
Binh Duong had better results with 7 points after 4 matches and ranked 4th. Coach Hoang Anh Tuan's team won Thanh Hoa 2-1, won Ho Chi Minh City 3-0, drew Hai Phong 1-1 and lost to Hanoi Police 0-1.
