Pre-match information
The highlight of round 9 of the 2024-2025 National First Division is the match between Truong Tuoi Binh Phuoc and Phu Dong Ninh Binh clubs. They are also the two leading candidates for the ticket to the V.League promotion this season.
Currently, the two teams are sharing the top two positions in the rankings. Phu Dong Ninh Binh leads with 21 points, while Binh Phuoc is in 2nd place with 20 points but has played 1 more match than its opponent.
Therefore, this is considered a 6-point match that both Phu Dong Ninh Binh and Binh Phuoc aim to win. Given the importance of the match, VAR will be applied for the first time in the First Division right in this match.
Coach Nguyen Viet Thang and his team have maintained a stable performance since the beginning of the season with a streak of 7 unbeaten matches (7 wins, 0 draws, 0 losses). Although Ninh Binh had to work very hard to defeat their opponents in some matches, they still overcame them with decisive goals.
Meanwhile, the host Binh Phuoc is also unbeaten in 8 matches with 6 wins and 2 draws. In particular, coach Nguyen Anh Duc's team regrettably dropped points against weaker teams Hoa Binh and Dong Nai.
Not to mention, the absence of Cong Phuong in recent matches due to injury has more or less affected the home team's attacking play. They lack a skillful striker and make high breakthroughs.
