* PRE-MATCH PREDICTIONS

This is the third consecutive season that the Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City team and the University of Technology of Ho Chi Minh City team have participated in the Vietnam Youth Student Football Tournament, but have never reached the final round, so they have shown their determination to "change their luck" at the THACO Youth Student Cup 2025.

The Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology team came very close to the final round when they reached the play-off round in the first season but lost to the Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry on penalties. In the second season, coach Nguyen Quoc Nam and his team also played impressively, achieving 6 points but stopped when they only finished second in the table. Therefore, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology team is very determined in the TNSV THACO cup 2025 and wants to win all 3 points in the opening match against the Ho Chi Minh City University of Banking to maintain the advantage from the beginning.

Meanwhile, Coach Ngo Chi Tien of the Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City team said: "This is the third time we have participated in the Youth Student Football Tournament. Every time, after the last match of the previous year's tournament, we immediately started practicing to prepare for the next year's tournament. This year, the participating force of the Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City team is mainly first and second year students and only a few students have experience playing in previous seasons."

Training conditions are not favorable, mainly practicing on a 5-a-side field to save costs, and only occasionally playing friendly matches on an 11-a-side field, so the coaching staff of the Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City team focuses on improving the students' 11-a-side football playing mindset. The goal of the Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City team at the TNSV THACO Cup 2025 is to play well in each match. "Most importantly, we want to create a cohesive and fun living environment for students and help them improve their skills through each match," said coach Ngo Chi Tien.
