Football review Dong A Thanh Hoa-Becamex HCMC 6pm October 2: Poor people face difficulties

Dong A Thanh Hoa needs a win to add momentum for the difficult race ahead.

Comments before the match Dong A Thanh Hoa vs Becamex HCMC

Becamex HCM City used to be a force in the V-League with 4 championships, 2 of which were when Mr. Hien's Hanoi T&T was dominating the domestic leagues. However, with less investment than before, the team from the land of Thu gradually declined.

In this season, they lost their number 1 striker Nguyen Tien Linh to join the Ho Chi Minh City Police. This has further weakened the strength of Becamex Ho Chi Minh City. After 5 rounds, Becamex Binh Duong has only 3 points, standing second to last on the rankings.

But their opponent in the 6th round encounter is Dong A Thanh Hoa, a team that is facing even more difficulties. Preparing for this season, Thanh Hoa has brought in many new faces, including former players like Que Ngoc Hai. The forward line has the presence of Rimario, a striker who used to play for HAGL, possessing speed, physical strength and very good scoring skills.

However, the unexpected incident involving Mr. Cao Tien Doan had a strong impact on the spirit of the Thanh team. After 5 rounds, Thanh Hoa fell to the bottom of the rankings with only 2 points.

The risk of relegation is present for both Becamex HCM City and especially Thanh Hoa. Therefore, the confrontation between the two teams tomorrow is of special importance. The team that maintains concentration and fighting spirit will be able to gain points.

Form, head-to-head record and strength

In the last 5 matches, Becamex HCMC set a sad record when they lost all 5 matches. Most recently, they lost 1-2 toSHB Da Nang in round 5 of LPBank V.League 2025/26 despite being ahead of their opponents.

On the other side of the front line, Dong A Thanh Hoa also lost 4/5 matches, only drawing 2-2 with Hai Phong on September 20 in V.League. In the most recent match, they took the lead against Hanoi FC at Hang Day but could not maintain the victory when they lost 1-2.

In previous encounters, the winning rate was in favor of Becamex HCM City. However, the situation may change in this encounter when both sides are not in good form and strength. Thanh Hoa has home field advantage, and if they play to their full potential, they can make a difference. In terms of strength, both sides have retained all their current key players.
