The match between HAGL and Becamex TP.HCM in round 1 of V-League received special attention. In this year's season, both teams have made remarkable changes. If HAGL said goodbye to a series of pillars such as Minh Vuong, Ngoc Quang, Bao Toan, Dung Quang Nho, Ly Duc... then Becamex TP.HCM could not keep its stars, including the 2024 Vietnam Golden Ball Nguyen Tien Linh.

Preparing for the new season, the mountain town team welcomed a series of new players, mostly young players such as Hoang Vinh Nguyen (HCMC), Nguyen Quoc Viet (Ninh Binh), Nay Di Dan (Kon Tum), Tran Gia Huy, Huynh Tuan Vu, Nguyen Duy Tam, Ryan Ha, Nguyen Duy Thang ( Long An Club), two foreign players Khevin Fraga, Gabriel Conceicao.

HAGL has to worry about relegation again?

With this force, experts predict that HAGL will have a hard time competing for the championship. Coach Le Quang Trai's team will likely continue to aim for the goal of staying in the V-League this season.

In the opening match, HAGL not only played at home, but also welcomed the "tough" opponent Becamex TP.HCM (renamed from Becamex Binh Duong ). Like HAGL, the away team faced many difficulties in terms of personnel after the departure of a series of key players.

The loss of both Tien Linh and Que Ngoc Hai, while Vi Hao has not returned, has caused Becamex TP.HCM to face many difficulties. However, against the not-so-strong HAGL, the home team at Go Dau Stadium can completely think of at least 1 point in the opening match of the 2025/26 season.

In the remaining matches, rookie Ninh Binh will play away at Ha Tinh, while another rookie PVF-CAND will host SLNA, and Thanh Hoa will meet SHB Da Nang at home.
