On October 26, Dong Nai will host Bac Ninh in the 5th round of the Bia Sao Vang 2025/26 First Division. Both teams are candidates for the championship, so the result of this match is very important. For Dong Nai, if they win 3 points, they will continue to maintain the lead, while the Kinh Bac team that wins will have the opportunity to usurp the top spot from their opponent.

The highlight match of the 5th round of the First Division promises to be exciting and dramatic. Unfortunately for the home team, the main striker Nguyen Cong Phuong has not yet recovered from his injury. In the most recent training session, the striker born in 1995 did not appear on the field with his teammates.

Cong Phuong has not played any match since the beginning of the season.

In the absence of Cong Phuong , Dong Nai is looking forward to the impressive performance of Minh Vuong, who has been playing very well recently. In round 4, the former HAGL player scored a double to help Dong Nai win 2-1 against Long An on away field.

Playing in the midfielder position, Minh Vuong is currently the player who has scored the most goals for Dong Nai, and is also leading the list of top scorers in the First Division this season. If he continues to show good form, the former HAGL striker can help the Southeast team solve the problem of scoring goals and compete for the championship fairly.

Of course, Dong Nai's playing style does not only include Minh Vuong. Coach Nguyen Viet Thang also has quality players such as Huu Tuan, Xuan Truong, Tu Nhan... In addition, Dong Nai's captain is also looking forward to the return of Cong Phuong - who not only has the ability to score goals but is also a spiritual support for the team.
