Latest V-League schedule: Is Nam Dinh really good or not, we will know after this match!

Tense battle of wits at Ninh Binh Stadium

Since joining the V-League, Ninh Binh Club has become a special phenomenon. The strong investment in personnel, from quality foreign players to notable domestic contracts, has helped the rookie team quickly integrate into the game. Without taking too much time to adapt, Ninh Binh Club started the season with an impressive series of victories, creating a strong boost both professionally and mentally. However, the biggest challenge only really appeared when they faced Nam Dinh Club on September 22. One side is a new name in the highest playground in Vietnam, while the other side is a real "big guy" with 2 consecutive V-League championships.

At this time, Ninh Binh Club is on the rise with a series of 4 consecutive wins at the beginning of the season (3 in V-League, 1 in the National Cup). Meanwhile, Nam Dinh Club, despite possessing a superior force compared to the general level, has entered the game quite unsteadily. The 0-0 draw with Ho Chi Minh City Police Club in the early match of round 6 on September 13 partly shows that the team from the South has not yet returned to a stable "track". This is an opportunity for Ninh Binh Club to make a strong statement, that they have clear ambitions and goals. Getting points against Nam Dinh is still considered a good result for Ninh Binh Club, but a victory will elevate the rookie team, turning them from a phenomenon into a new force. This is the time when Ninh Binh's coaching staff needs to show alertness, tactical flexibility and above all, the spirit of readiness to step onto the big stage. One match, two aspirations: Nam Dinh wants to assert its position as king, while Ninh Binh is determined to prove that it deserves respect.

Round 4 of the V-League promises to be exciting with the rematch between Hanoi FC and The Cong Viettel at Hang Day Stadium at 7:15 p.m. on September 20. Hanoi FC is facing many problems at the beginning of the season with a series of 4 matches without knowing the taste of victory (1 draw, 3 losses). Most recently, they lost 0-1 to The Cong Viettel and stopped right at the National Cup qualifying round. The remaining matches: PVF-CAND vs. Da Nang FC (6 p.m. on September 20), Thanh Hoa FC vs. Hai Phong FC (6 p.m. on September 20), SLNA vs. Ha Tinh FC (6 p.m. on September 21), Becamex TP.HCM vs. Ho Chi Minh City Police FC (6 p.m. on September 21).
