Hai Phong vs Thanh Hoa Prediction, 7:15 p.m. May 16: The situation is reversed

Comments before the match Hai Phong vs Thanh Hoa

At first, Thanh Hoa played brilliantly in all competitions. They achieved good results in the Southeast Asian Cup 1, firmly holding the top position in the national championship. When Hanoi and Nam Dinh were not "warmed up", Thanh Hoa continuously achieved impressive results to take the leading position.

They have been at the top of the rankings for 6 rounds, only less than Nam Dinh up to this point. A team currently ranked 7th but has been at the top for 6 rounds, that detail shows how Thanh Hoa has lost themselves.

Meanwhile, Hai Phong went in the opposite direction. In the early stages, when midfielder Trieu Viet Hung had not returned from injury, Hai Phong struggled. They had a period when they fell into the relegation group. But the more they played, the more stable this team became with consecutive impressive results.

That achievement was built on a solid defense system with goalkeeper Dinh Trieu always bringing a sense of security. Meanwhile, defenders like Huu Son and Van Toi always knew how to score goals to help the home team overcome difficulties.

Thanks to their good form, Hai Phong has risen to 8th place on the rankings, owning a safe position. Even if they win against Thanh Hoa today, Hai Phong will take the opponent's position to ensure their relegation.

Thanh Hoa has declined further since losing Ngoc Tan.

Form, history of confrontations between Hai Phong and Thanh Hoa

Hai Phong has reason to be optimistic about victory. They have only lost 1 in the last 6 rounds. Thanks to that, the team from Hai Phong has risen to the middle of the rankings and avoided the risk of relegation.

On the other side of the front line, Thanh Hoa is still struggling despite changing the head coach. It must be admitted that there have been positive changes in this team, both in playing style and in personnel, but Thanh Hoa's results are still very modest. They have a new Laotian player, Damoth, but they have lost the persistent "engine" Ngoc Tan. That absence has caused the Thanh team to lose the last 3 matches. This club has only won 1 match under coach Tomislav Steinbruckner.

The consecutive bad results have caused Thanh Hoa to drop from 1st place, with a chance to compete for the championship with Nam Dinh, to 7th place on the rankings. In the last 17 matches in all competitions, this club has only won 1. In the same period, even the 2 bottom teams Da Nang and Binh Dinh are not as bad as them.

Perhaps with such modest luggage, Thanh Hoa will find it difficult to dream at Lach Tray tonight.
