Ho Chi Minh City are welcoming Hai Phong for another important game after their 1-1 result against 2nd-placed Viettel.
- Ho Chi Minh City have the fewest scored goals in the first half (0) in V-League
- Hai Phong is in the worst form (0-2-4)
Ho Chi Minh City and Hai Phong 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.
Hai Phong have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Ho Chi Minh City form and stats
3 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Ho Chi Minh City have to build on here in the V-League.
The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Viettel in the V-League last time out and are looking for a win here. Prior to that, an away loss at Nam Dinh.

Hai Phong form and stats
Playing away, Hai Phong have won 2 games, drawn 1 and suffered 2 defeats in the V-League this season.
J. Lynch was the last player to score for the away team. Hai Phong haven't scored a league goal in the last 544 minutes. 207 minutes! That's how long the Phong goalkeeper Vu Hai Phan Dinh and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
A 0-0 draw at Sai Gon's stadium before that.
Phong are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 5 away games. It's not easy to score on Phong as they have only conceded 4 goals from these away games.
