Football review CAHN vs Hanoi FC, 19:15 August 28: Fiery Capital Derby

TPO - Football prediction CAHN vs Hanoi FC, round 3 LPBank V-League 1-2025/26, at 19:15 on August 28 - Information on forces, expected lineup, form, history of confrontation. This is a match that not only has the meaning of points but also is an honorable battle between two championship candidates.

Pre-match review

CAHN’s start to the season was not really perfect. In the opening match, coach Mano Polking’s team only got 1 point against The Cong Viettel in a tight match. Not long after that, at the Southeast Asian Club Cup, CAHN lost 1-2 to Pathum United (Thailand) despite having one more player, and also lost key central defender Bui Hoang Viet Anh due to injury.

However, that stumble was quickly filled with a resounding 3-0 victory right on the field of Becamex TP.HCM. Alan opened the scoring early, before the personnel advantage appeared after Tran Trung Hieu's red card. With the overwhelming match, Leo Artur and Quang Hai scored in turn, bringing the first victory to the Police team. This victory not only helped CAHN regain confidence to prepare for the big match with Hanoi FC.

Meanwhile, Hanoi FC had a difficult start to the season. The purple team lost 1-2 to Ho Chi Minh City FC in the opening match. In the second round, despite dominating possession and having 21 shots (9 on target), they were still helpless against HAGL's defense and had to accept a 0-0 draw at home.

The waste of opportunities is a big problem that is giving coach Makoto Teguramori a headache. However, he still has a formidable squad of players with Van Quyet, Tuan Hai, Hai Long..., who can absolutely explode when facing their city rivals. A victory over CAHN will not only help Hanoi FC get 3 points but also confirm their position as a championship candidate.

Compared to their opponents, CAHN is showing more balance and depth in their squad. Stars like Quang Hai, Leo Artur, Alan in the attack are capable of making a difference against any defense. Meanwhile, Hanoi FC needs the coolness and decisiveness of Van Quyet and the sharpness of Tuan Hai to solve the problem of finishing.

Form, head-to-head history

The history of the last 6 confrontations is in favor of Hanoi FC with 3 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss. But the capital derby has never been easy to predict, where a moment of brilliance from a star can decide the outcome.
