Ha Noi have performed better than Ho Chi Minh City so far this season, but every game starts at 0-0. Here's all you need to know about the upcoming game:
Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
These teams have little in common geographically as Ho Chi Minh City have to travel 1500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Ho Chi Minh City form and stats
3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of Ho Chi Minh City, who have the most scored goals (23) in V-League, playing as the away team in the V-League this season. Minh seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
It might be tough going out on the road again for Ho Chi Minh City, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-5 versus Hoang Anh Gia Lai. That result followed a home victory 5-1 versus Nam Dinh.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Hoang Anh Gia Lai was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
A new game in only four days for Minh, the V-League home match versus Viettel. Busy days.
The travelling fans enjoy Ho Chi Minh City's attacking play in away games, having scored 11 goals in 6 league matches away. As opposed to that, Minh have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
