Some key information before the Ninh Binh vs Thanh Hoa match

The match between Ninh Binh and Đông Á Thanh Hóa promises excitement as both teams enter the next round with contrasting mindsets. Ninh Binh is highly motivated after their opening win at Hà Tĩnh. Returning home, Coach Castano’s team aims to continue their momentum with another victory, asserting their status as a potential dark horse. With a quality squad and high confidence, Ninh Binh shows ambition to break into the top group in their first season after promotion.

Meanwhile, Đông Á Thanh Hóa has yet to find their spark under Coach Choi Won-kwon. A 1-1 draw against SHB Đà Nẵng exposed weaknesses in attack and a lack of cohesion in defense. The expected strong offense is still not firing, and the midfield needs more time to function smoothly. Although historical records show Thanh Hoa dominated Ninh Binh in cup matches, currently their form and morale cannot match the rising spirit of the home team.

With home advantage, impressive form, and high morale, Ninh Binh is likely to control possession and create dangerous chances. If they capitalize well, the team from the ancient capital can secure all three points in their first home V.League 1 appearance.

Expected lineups for Ninh Binh vs Thanh Hoa

• Ninh Binh: Văn Lâm; Patrick Marcelino, Thanh Thịnh, Đức Chiến, Ngọc Quang, Bảo Toàn, Ngọc Bảo, Hoàng Đức, Gustavo Henrique, Quang Nho, Daniel Da Silva.
• Thanh Hoa: Y Eli Nie, Ngọc Hải, Mbodj, Văn Lợi, Bá Tiến, Thái Sơn, Ngọc Tân, Thái Bình, Văn Thuận, Rimario, Nguyên Hoàng.
