Prediction of Nam Dinh Green Steel vs Dong A Thanh Hoa, 18:00 on May 11: Straight to the throne

Comments before the match Nam Dinh Green Steel vs Dong A Thanh Hoa

Nam Dinh Green Steel showed the strength of the champion when defeating competitor Hanoi FC with a score of 3-0 right at Hang Day. Not only that, this victory also demonstrated the mettle and consistency of the Southern team in the sprint stage. Since the end of January until now, no team in LPBank V.League 2024/25 has had a better performance than Nam Dinh, when earning 22 points from a maximum of 30 points.

In round 22, because Hanoi FC recovered quite well after the defeat with a win over SLNA, Nam Dinh had to continue to maintain an impressive streak of matches to prevent the opponent from catching up. Meeting Dong A Thanh Hoa is an opportunity for coach Vu Hong Viet and his team to increase their score, in the context of the Thanh army being in trouble.

After the surprising win against The Cong Viettel, coach Tomislav Steinbruckner and his team lost two consecutive matches against opponents in the bottom half of the rankings. It would not be surprising if they continued to lose in their away match at Thien Truong due to their disappointing away form since the beginning of 2025.

Thien Truong Stadium also does not bring many good memories to Thanh Hoa. The last time they came here, they lost 0-3 to Nam Dinh in the 2023/24 National Super Cup match. The previous two times, Thanh Hoa had 2 draws. Overall, in the last 5 confrontations between the two teams in the V.League, Thanh Hoa has not won, received 2 defeats and earned 3 draws.
