V-League match schedule today: Golden opportunity for HAGL to rise, Ninh Binh to affirm its position

HAGL Club has a very good opportunity to escape the bottom position when hosting Nam Dinh Club at Pleiku Stadium at 5:00 p.m. today (October 31) in round 9 of V-League 2025 - 2026.

HAGL looking for second win

Despite being at the bottom of the table with 6 points, the spirit of HAGL players is very high after the 2-1 victory over The Cong Viettel in round 8. In their first victory in V-League this season, people saw a completely "transformed" HAGL. They played with more fire and determination, especially with many very dangerous attacks, many times putting The Cong Viettel's defense in a difficult position to fight back.

Another difference is that HAGL defends in a clear and organized manner, not as tightly as before. This helps them play very well to bring joy to the mountain town fans.

Riding on the momentum of victory, HAGL Club is actively preparing for a victory against the visiting team Nam Dinh . Coach Le Quang Trai continues to train his players in their signature quick counter-attacks, while the defenders also practice defending high balls more. The whole team is determined to take all 3 points at home.

In contrast to HAGL's rising spirit, Nam Dinh has encountered too many problems. First of all, the injuries of key players have made them not know victory for 2 months. Next is the decline in spirit when they were held to a 1-1 draw by the weak team Da Nang in round 8 right at the fire pit of Thien Truong. At Pleiku Stadium in the 2024 - 2025 season, when having the best force, Nam Dinh only drew with HAGL in a goalless match.

Therefore, when Nam Dinh is fluctuating, this is an opportunity for the mountain town team to rise up and win and escape the red light position.

Also in the relegation group, Da Nang FC will have a chance to score points when hosting SLNA FC at Hoa Xuan Stadium at 6 p.m. on November 1. Although Da Nang's squad is not strong, the visiting team SLNA is quite weak this season. The Nghe An team just lost 0-1 to Thanh Hoa at Vinh Stadium, so they are even more discouraged when visiting Hoa Xuan. In addition, SLNA is at a disadvantage when losing their main striker Reon Dale Moore. If they play at their best, Da Nang will have their second win since the beginning of the season.

Ninh Binh Club has a chance to create distance

In this round, the top team Ninh Binh will play at home against Becamex TP.HCM Club at 6:00 p.m. on November 1. Coach Albadalejo Castano Gerard's team is on the rise, topping the table with 20 points. The unbeaten record after 8 rounds helps Ninh Binh become a strong candidate for the championship. This season, captain Hoang Duc plays very well. He coordinates the ball, launches attacks very effectively, creating opportunities for surrounding satellites such as Tran Bao Toan, Daniel Da Silva, Quoc Viet... to shine.

Facing Ninh Binh’s effective attack, Becamex TP.HCM’s defense will find it difficult to stand firm as this team is currently the team that has conceded the most goals with 15 goals after only 8 matches. Therefore, if Ninh Binh plays with stable performance, they will have their 7th win and create a gap with the teams behind.

Another undefeated team, Hanoi Police (CAHN), will host PVF - CAND at Hang Day Stadium at 7:15 p.m. on October 31. CAHN has a relatively superior squad, so they will focus on winning to prevent Ninh Binh Club from getting too far ahead.

The remaining matches: Hong Linh Ha Tinh vs. Hanoi Club (6 p.m. on October 31); Ho Chi Minh City Police Club vs. Hai Phong Club (7:15 p.m. on November 1); Thanh Hoa Club vs. The Cong Viettel Club (6 p.m. on November 2).
