* Pre-match comments
In group 3 of group E (Central Coast region qualifying round), FPT Polytechnic College team has already won a ticket to the play-off match with 4 points. Therefore, Hue University team and Da Nang Technical Education College team will compete fiercely for the remaining ticket. Both teams must win to be able to continue.
Hue University team (left) will definitely advance if they win in the final round.
Hue University is currently in a better position. The team that won the tournament in 2023 currently has 1 point, after a difficult draw in the opening match against FPT Polytechnic College on January 8. In the final match taking place at 9:00 a.m. today (January 10), Hue University will definitely win a ticket to the play-off match if they defeat Da Nang University of Technology and Education with any score.
However, winning 3 points in the final match is not easy for Hue University. Hue University's squad this season is not as strong as in previous years, when many players returned to play for their school's team. The cases of fullback Nguyen Van Do and striker Nguyen Duc Tai, who are playing for the University of Science - Hue University, are examples. Both of the above players were part of the Hue University team that won the tournament for the first time - in 2023.
Group 3 standings before the final round of matches
On the other hand, the team of Danang University of Technology and Education, although no longer having the right to decide, still has a slim chance to continue. Accordingly, the team of Danang University of Technology and Education (currently having 0 points and a goal difference of -1) needs to win against Hue University with a big score, with a difference of 3 goals or more to have a chance to continue.
