Pre-match review
Eastern AA is not a top force in Hong Kong (China), currently ranked 7th in the National Championship table with 4 points after 3 rounds.
In the opening match of AFC Champions League Two, Eastern created a surprise when they scored against Gamba Osaka to equalize 1-1 and maintained the balance until the 75th minute, before Calum Hall received a red card causing the team to collapse and lose 1-3.
Eastern is considered to have a disciplined defense and sharp counterattacks like Martins and Yu Okubo, but their weakness is their hot-tempered mentality which can easily lead to mistakes.
Meanwhile, Nam Dinh FC is going through a difficult period. Despite winning against Ratchaburi and Svay Rieng in the continental competition, they lost to Ninh Binh and CAHN in the V-League, falling to 7th place. Two consecutive defeats put coach Vu Hong Viet under great pressure as the team from the South has not met expectations.
Force information
Eastern: Defender Calum Hall is absent due to a red card in the previous match.
Nam Dinh: Can field a squad of 11 foreign players in the upcoming away match.
