Pre-match comments Ratchaburi vs Nam Dinh Blue Steel
In the framework of group F, the first ticket belongs to Gamba Osaka of Japan. The remaining ticket will be the race between Nam Dinh Blue Steel and Ratchaburi.
With 6 points after 4 rounds, the defending V.League champions will have to defeat Ratchaburi to secure second place in the table. In the first leg at Thien Truong Stadium, the team from Thanh Nam defeated Ratchaburi 3-1. This result will help Nam Dinh feel confident in their away match in Thailand.
Nam Dinh's performance in domestic tournaments has not been good recently, leading to coach Vu Hong Viet having to leave his position. However, under the new coach Mauro, they have temporarily stabilized and the recent 2-0 defeat of Long An in the National Cup has somewhat given Nam Dinh better conditions to concentrate on the international front.
However, defeating Ratchaburi for the second time is not an easy task. The Thai team is returning to good form, with a squad that possesses many quality players. Ratchaburi's attack has players with high speed and technique, creating a potential threat to Nam Dinh's defense system, which has not been very solid recently.
A draw would be an acceptable result for coach Mauro and his team, giving Nam Dinh an advantage over their opponents.
Head-to-head record, form and strength
As mentioned above, Nam Dinh defeated their opponent 3-1 in the first leg. In the last 5 matches, Nam Dinh only won 1, lost 1 and drew 3 matches. In contrast, Ratchaburi won 4/5 matches and only drew 1 match. This is a big challenge for the reigning V.League champion when having to play away in Thailand.
Regarding the squad, Nguyen Xuan Son has recovered from his injury but was unable to register for the match. Apart from the Brazilian striker, Nam Dinh has the strongest squad. Similarly, Ratchaburi is expected to field a strong squad to win.
