The Cong Viettel has demonstrated consistent form in the 2025/26 V.League with a 6-match unbeaten run (3 wins, 3 draws), currently sitting 4th on the table with 12 points. Under coach Popov’s leadership, the team plays a solid, effective style marked by strong discipline. Compared to last season, The Cong Viettel is now more pragmatic, controlling the game better and capitalizing on chances to secure maximum points.
The 1-1 draw at Ninh Binh in round 6 clearly showed the military team’s resilient spirit. Despite being down to 10 men from late in the first half after Bui Tien Dung received a red card, Popov’s players fought bravely, withstanding the opponent’s pressure and earning a valuable point. This result boosts The Cong Viettel’s confidence ahead of their home match against SHB Da Nang in the upcoming round.
Meanwhile, SHB Da Nang has yet to show improvement after a difficult relegation battle last season. After 6 rounds, coach Le Duc Tuan’s team has only one win, accumulating 5 points and ranking 12th on the table. Defensive weaknesses and slow adaptation of foreign players have caused the Han River team to drop points repeatedly. Their recent 0-2 loss to Hanoi FC has increased pressure on them. Playing away at Hang Day, SHB Da Nang’s most realistic goal is likely to secure at least a point against a confident and in-form The Cong Viettel.
