It's early days in the V-League and both FLC Thanh Hoa and Nam Dinh are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
FLC Thanh Hoa form and stats
FLC Thanh Hoa have less points than they have played home games in the V-League so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 1 point.
The home supporters saw a 0-0 draw versus Song Lam Nghe An in the V-League last time out and are looking for a win here. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Quang Nam (1-2).
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the FLC Thanh Hoa at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Nam Dinh form and stats
It's not happening yet for Nam Dinh on their V-League travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Dinh seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
There might be some fixture complaints from Dinh as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the V-League match against Hoang Anh Gia Lai (0-1). Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Viettel.
2 goals so far away for Nam Dinh, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
Thanh-Nam Dinh H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: FLC Thanh Hoa three wins, Nam Dinh four wins, three draws. five of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
