This match features two teams living in the basement of the V-League, Hai Phong holding 13th place and FLC Thanh Hoa lying 10th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a V-League match only four days ago. That game was an away game at Song Lam Nghe An, so at least Phong are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
