The second match of Round 1 of the V-League 2023/2024 is a clash between Dong A Thanh Hoa FC and Hong Linh Ha Tinh FC.
Thanh Hoa FC is considered an interesting obstacle in the V-League championship race. Thanh Hoa understands that they don't have many chances to win the title because they would be at a disadvantage, but this team always "prefers" to defeat strong opponents.
However, before thinking about the more emotional matches, they need a victory in their opening home game against Hong Linh Ha Tinh. Thanh Hoa FC is certainly one of the teams with the most impressive start to the new season.
Thanh Hoa aims to defeat Hong Linh Ha Tinh.
Coach Velizar Popov's team remained undefeated in their pre-season friendly matches. In the 2023 National Super Cup match, Thanh Hoa convincingly defeated Hanoi Police FC. Besides maintaining their impressive playing style from the previous season, Thanh Hoa also received much good news from their new signings.
After a five-year absence from the team, Rimario returned with two goals. New signing Antonio Luiz showed why he was once a top player in the Brazilian league. Luiz had little difficulty neutralizing both Thanh Long and Quang Hai. He played powerfully but calmly and effectively.
Similarly, Hong Linh Ha Tinh basically had a reassuring transfer window. New signing Bruno plays well as a defensive midfielder and is also decent as a center-back. Against Thanh Hoa's very strong attack, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong will choose to play a tight defensive game before thinking about surprise attacks.
In that case, Bruno would be a better fit as a center-back. His task would be to tightly mark Rimario. But Coach Popov still has many attacking options such as Trong Hung, Ti Phong, Thanh Binh, or young striker Vo Nguyen Hoang. Their energy will bring surprises to any opponent.
Prediction: Thanh Hoa 3-1 Hong Linh Ha Tinh.
Predicted lineup:
East Asia Thanh Hoa: Thanh Diep, Thai Binh , Gustavo, Van Loi, Viet Tu, A Mit, Thai Son, Luiz, Trong Hung, Ti Phong, Rimario.
Hong Linh Ha Tinh: Duong Quang Tuan, Xuan Hung, Anh Quang, Bruno, Van Duc, Phi Son, Thanh Trung, Trung Hoc, Tan Loc, Diallo, Michael Gopey.
