With only 4 rounds left in the season, the situation at both the top and bottom of the table is still extremely complicated and tense, especially the relegation group. Thep Xanh Nam Dinh has the advantage in the race for the championship, but Hanoi FC still has a chance, and the 4 teams ranked below also have the motivation to compete for the top 3. At the same time, there are at least 4 teams fiercely fighting to avoid being in the bottom 2 positions after round 26 ends.

The earliest match of this round will take place at Lach Tray Stadium on Friday (May 16), where the two teams are ranked next to each other on the rankings: Hai Phong (28 points, 7th place) welcomes Dong A Thanh Hoa (30 points, 6th place).
With a gap of only 2 points, if the home team wins, the positions of both sides will immediately change. Under the leadership of coach Chu Dinh Nghiem, the Hai Phong team is showing impressive performance in the second stage with 5 wins, 2 draws and only 2 losses - a great improvement compared to the result of only 2 wins in 13 matches in the first leg.
The 2-0 victory over Ho Chi Minh City at Thong Nhat Stadium in the last round is also a testament to Hai Phong's progress. Meanwhile, despite having new coach Steinbruckner, Thanh Hoa is still facing difficulties and has lost all 3 recent matches. They need to regain the form of a strong team in the Central region.
Therefore, there is no doubt about the determination of both teams in this match, especially Hai Phong - the team with home field advantage and full of desire to reclaim the "debt" of losing 1-3 in the first leg. Thanh Hoa also needs points to forget the losses and return to the race for the leading group.
