CLB Hải Phòng unexpectedly leads the V-League in one statistic

Generating excitement by securing a spot in the top 4, CLB Hải Phòng additionally stands out with their strong record at home.

CLB Hải Phòng has made a remarkable surge in recent rounds, climbing to 4th place on the standings. In Round 9 at Thống Nhất Stadium, CLB Công an TP.HCM took an early lead at the 11th minute through Quốc Cường. However, the home team couldn't hold on for the rest of the match, as CLB Hải Phòng came from behind to win 2-1 with second-half goals by Friday and Tagueu.

This marks the third consecutive victory for coach Chu Đình Nghiêm’s squad, including two comebacks after falling behind. These successive wins have propelled the team from the port city to 4th place in the rankings. Meanwhile, CLB Công an TP.HCM has struggled recently (1 draw, 2 losses) and is gradually falling further behind in the race for the top spots.

Not only performing well away, Hải Phòng’s strength this season lies in their impressive home record at Lạch Tray Stadium. Specifically, the port city team holds the best home form in the V-League with 4 wins and 1 draw, matching CAHN but scoring more goals at home—12 compared to 10.

However, in terms of away matches, CLB Hải Phòng ranks 9th with only 4 points. In contrast, newcomer CLB Ninh Bình is the "king of away points," having secured 4 wins and 1 draw from 5 away games.

Despite lacking high-profile players, coach Chu Đình Nghiêm’s team has been very impressive this season with 5 wins, 2 draws, and only 2 losses. This victory not only earned points but also demonstrated the team’s fighting spirit. According to coach Chu Đình Nghiêm, his players are improving with every match:

“Today, Công an TP HCM was missing their foreign players, while ours performed very well. They moved flexibly, creating dynamism and surprise in attack. You could say the whole team is improving day by day.In the next round, Hải Phòng will visit CLB Becamex TPCHM’s stadium,
