In the comeback match of round 11 in midweek, the 0-1 defeat to Quang Nam caused Thanh Hoa to fall to 4th on the rankings. They have gone 4 consecutive matches without a win in the V.League (3 draws, 1 loss) and are 2 points behind leaders The Cong Viettel.
Having to compete in the entire continental arena means that Thanh Hoa does not have the best preparation for the race in the V.League. After being eliminated from the Southeast Asian Club Championship, Popov and his team will be able to focus more on domestic matches.
In all competitions, the Thanh team is going through 7 consecutive matches without a win. The problem is that they have drawn too many times, losing many unfortunate points. At home, despite being unbeaten in the last 4 matches, Thanh Hoa has had 3 matches to share points with their opponents.
Although Quang Nam is only 9th on the rankings, it has held strong opponents such as Hanoi, The Cong Viettel, Hanoi Police to a draw in the first leg. Thanh Hoa needs to be wary of the visitors when they just lost 4 days ago.
The match between Thanh Hoa vs Quang Nam takes place at 6:00 p.m. today (February 23) and will be broadcast live at FPT Play.
