Lineups to start


Pre-match information
Round 22 of V.League 2025-2026 may become the time to determine the championship this season. Hanoi Police are holding a great advantage when leading the rankings with 54 points, along with an 11 point gap from the team behind them, The Cong Viettel.
If The Cong Viettel cannot win against Hong Linh Ha Tinh and Cong An Ha Noi to overcome Nam Dinh at Hang Day Stadium, coach Mano Polking's team will officially be crowned early. In case both teams win, the championship race will continue to extend for at least one more round.
Hanoi Police are maintaining stable form. Since the defeat to Hanoi FC in early March, the Police sector team has won 6 and drawn 1 in the last 7 matches. Their attack maintains high scoring efficiency, especially the impressive return of Dinh Bac.
Before round 22, the striker born in 2004 had 8 goals scored in 5 consecutive matches. Besides Dinh Bac, Hanoi Police also welcomed the return of the foreign duo Leo Artur and Alan, helping to significantly improve attacking power.
In the opposite direction, Nam Dinh no longer maintains its position like the previous two seasons. After continuously winning the V.League championship, the Nam Dinh team invested heavily in force with the goal of competing in both domestic and continental arenas. However, they soon stopped at the AFC Champions League Two and ran out of steam in the domestic championship race.
Before this round, Nam Dinh was left quite far behind in the standings. The away match at Hang Day Stadium is therefore considered a big challenge for coach Vu Hong Viet's team.
