LPBank V-League is coming to an end, and the championship race is about to end. At the top of the rankings, Nam Dinh Steel Blue with 51 points has a great chance of successfully defending the throne. Currently, only Hanoi FC (46 points) has a chance to surpass, but the possibility is very small.

In the last 2 rounds, Nam Dinh Blue Steel will meet Quang Nam (away) and Ha Tinh (home). With a 5-point advantage over Hanoi FC (2nd place in the rankings), if the team from the South wins the next match, they will officially win the championship one round early, regardless of the results of the remaining matches.

Will Nam Dinh Green Steel win the championship in round 25?

In case Nam Dinh Blue Steel draws, they will have 52 points and still win the championship because they are better than Hanoi FC in terms of goal difference and head-to-head, if the capital team also wins in this round.

Even if Nam Dinh Green Steel loses to Quang Nam, they can still win the championship if Hanoi FC does not win in round 25. The capital team only has hope of winning the championship if they win against The Cong Viettel in the penultimate round. At that time, the race between Nam Dinh Green Steel and Hanoi FC will end in the final round.

However, this scenario is unlikely to happen because Nam Dinh Blue Steel is rated much higher than Quang Nam, while Hanoi FC faces a tough opponent, The Cong Viettel, in a derby match that is expected to be tense.

Analyzing the possibilities, we can see that Nam Dinh Blue Steel is almost holding the Championship Cup in its hands. The "crazy" scenario only happens when coach Vu Hong Viet's team loses both matches against Quang Nam and Ha Tinh, while Hanoi FC wins against The Cong Viettel and Binh Dinh.
