The match is expected to be exciting as both teams are hungry for points to improve their position in the rankings.
The last time they met, the representative of the city named after Uncle Ho suffered a 0-3 defeat right at home. This reunion is therefore considered an opportunity for coach Dang Tran Chinh's team to "rescue debt" against the most successful opponent in V.League.
After 7 rounds, Becamex HCMC has 7 points, temporarily ranked in the bottom half of the rankings. In the previous round, they regained their winning feeling when defeating Nam Dinh 2-1, thanks to Ugochukwu Oduenyi and Vo Hoang Minh Khoa. However, the team's defense is still a weak point when it has conceded 12 goals, among the most in the tournament. If they do not improve soon, the risk of falling to the bottom group is entirely possible.
On the other side of the front line, Hanoi FC under coach Harry Kewell is still not in stable form. After 7 rounds, the capital team has only 8 points and is currently in 7th place. The Australian strategist's debut match ended with a 1-2 defeat to Ninh Binh, but the team's playing style showed signs of improvement.
The history of the confrontation is leaning towards Hanoi FC with 7 wins in the last 10 encounters. However, in the context of both needing points, the match at Binh Duong Stadium promises to be tense and unpredictable, especially when Becamex HCMC is having home advantage with improved spirit after the most recent victory.
