Comments on the match Hai Phong vs SLNA, 18:00 on August 27: The away team is not easy to play against

VHO - Comments on the match Hai Phong vs SLNA, round 3 of V.League, having to play away at the "fire pan" Lach Tray but the Vinh team is confident that they will continue to create surprises.

Hai Phong vs SLNA form

Under the reign of coach Chu Dinh Nghiem, Hai Phong is famous for its individuality but is no longer as rough and tough as before. The former strategist who brought many successes to Hanoi FC has helped the team from the port city possess many diverse and unpredictable attacking strategies.

In the opening match of V.League 2025/26, despite having to play away at Thien Truong, Hai Phong made the defending champion struggle to come back and win 2-1. Entering the second round, against a much weaker opponent, the home team at Lach Tray Stadium did not miss the opportunity to pocket all 3 points.

Welcoming the new PVF-CAND, Hai Phong surprisingly let Eyenga score first. However, the relentless pressure created by the home team finally helped them reap sweet fruit. In just the last 10 minutes of the match, Friday, Viet Hung and Huu Nam scored consecutively, thereby completing the 3-1 victory.

The result was completely deserved for the home team at Lach Tray Stadium when they controlled the ball up to 60%, launched 18 shots, with a rate of hitting the target up to 73%. If there was still a striker in the squad with the ability to convert opportunities into goals as well as Lucao, Hai Phong might not have had to wait until the end of the match to breathe a sigh of relief.

The victory will certainly help coach Chu Dinh Nghiem and his team relieve mental pressure. They will have almost the best preparation for welcoming SLNA and aim to collect the next 3 points, thereby maintaining their position in the top half of the rankings.

But of course, the home team will not enter the match with a subjective mindset. Because that factor was fully utilized by SLNA in the reception of the giant Nam Dinh a few days ago. Although rated much lower than the reigning V.League champion, the Nghe An team still made everyone's eyes widen when they came from behind to win 2-1.

Coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his colleagues have made careful preparations. SLNA's disciplined playing style, knowing themselves and their opponents, has made the stars on the other side of the battle line "turn off the lights". In the visit to Hai Phong, the Vinh team will most likely maintain the approach of knowing themselves and their opponents.

Creating the biggest shock in round 2, SLNA is being injected with a strong enough dose of doping before the trip to the North. Not to mention, in all 5 recent clashes with Hai Phong, the away team is undefeated, earning 1 victory. In addition, in both recent clashes between the two sides at Lach Tray, SLNA also returned with 1 point in hand.
