Preview Nam Dinh vs PVF-CAND: Home team desperate for victory

Both Nam Dinh and PVF-CAND enter round 3 after suffering comeback defeats in their previous matches. For Nam Dinh, the 1-2 loss to SLNA was the biggest shock of round 2. Despite being favored and breaking the deadlock early, coach Vu Hong Viet’s team failed to maintain their advantage against an outstanding opponent, resulting in a disappointing empty-handed exit. Returning to the “fiery” Thien Truong stadium, the defending champions will surely learn from this and are likely to start aggressively, targeting three points against a newcomer side that has been rated low since the season began.

On the other hand, PVF-CAND, who recently lost 1-3 to Hai Phong, face another tough challenge. Playing away at Nam Dinh means confronting a stronger opponent and enduring intense pressure from the home crowd. Moreover, the absence of key foreign player Mpande due to suspension after a red card last round further diminishes PVF-CAND’s chances of securing points.
