Thep Xanh Nam Dinh Club enters the final stage of V.League 2025-2026 with a lot of pressure after the defeat to The Cong Viettel in round 23. This result caused the Nam Dinh team to drop to 7th place in the rankings and almost have no chance to compete for the leading group.
In the context that the goal at the national championship is no longer there, the Nam Dinh coaching staff will calculate more for the National Cup arena - where they still have a chance to win titles this season.
Force distribution is an important problem for coach Vu Hong Viet. After stopping at the AFC Champions League and the C1 Southeast Asian Cup, the National Cup is the last hope for Nam Dinh to save the season.
Meanwhile, Hanoi FC also does not have many goals this season. The Capital team was eliminated early from the National Cup, and the V.League championship belonged to Hanoi Police.
The most realistic goal of coach Harry Kewell's team at this time is to compete for 3rd place with Ninh Binh. Therefore, the match to welcome Nam Dinh is still of great significance to Hanoi FC.
Although they no longer have much motivation in the V.League, Nam Dinh certainly will not give up easily. Confrontations with Hanoi are always highly competitive and heavily related to the honor of the two big teams.
