Live Dong A Thanh Hoa vs The Cong Viettel, 18:00 April 19: Times have changed?

After parting ways with coach Velizar Popov due to a series of poor matches, Dong A Thanh Hoa has been looking for an exciting performance under coach Tomislav Steinbruckner. However, that has not happened yet. The Thanh team continues to extend its unbeaten streak, and the pressure is also piling up after each unsatisfactory result. With this situation, earning points against The Cong Viettel is too difficult a task. From the top of the table, then falling to 2nd, 3rd and now 5th, it is not surprising if Thanh Hoa continues to slide deeper in the LPBank V.League 2024/25 rankings.

Last weekend, The Cong Viettel dropped 3 points at Hong Linh Ha Tinh Stadium after an eye-catching match with 4 goals shared between the two teams. Fortunately, Thep Xanh Nam Dinh only earned 1 point against Ho Chi Minh City Club, leaving the championship race still very open.

However, having only 2 points after the last 2 rounds is a big disappointment, forcing coach Nguyen Duc Thang and his team to try harder in the remaining matches. The first is the away match in Thanh Hoa this evening. In the context of the chaotic home team, for The Cong Viettel, there is nothing other than the goal of victory.

During the time coached by Popov, Thanh Hoa always knew how to make things difficult for The Cong Viettel. In 8 matches during this time, Thanh Hoa won 4, including the 2023 National Cup final. Meanwhile, the army only won 3 and drew 1.

However, times have changed, Thanh Hoa's current coach is Steinbruckner, who has extended the winless streak in all competitions to 13 (9 draws, 4 losses). 7 matches in this period took place at Thanh Hoa's home ground, including 5 V.League matches and 4 ended in a 1-1 draw.
