Pre-match comments SLNA vs Hanoi Police
SLNA has been facing many difficulties in recent seasons due to not having as many players as its opponents. This season, the Nghe An team did not start well when they only won 5 points after 6 rounds.
The decline in performance is the reason why the head coach position of SLNA has changed hands continuously, the latest case just happened when coach Phan Nhu Thuat resigned. The person chosen by SLNA to replace him is coach Van Sy Son, an experienced coach in V.League. Mr. Son has led many teams, has a reputation as a coach and understands the Nghe An team very well.
However, "no flour to make glue", the challenge for SLNA in this round is too great, the championship candidate is Hanoi Police. Under coach Mano Polking, Hanoi Police is playing better and better with a harmonious football style in both attack and defense. The star squad of Hanoi Police with names like Nguyen Quang Hai, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh or goalkeeper Nguyen Filip... gradually becomes a stable collective.

It is hard to deny the leadership of Mr. Polking, who has led the Thai national team and is also familiar with V.League. In a short time, Hanoi Police have just convincingly defeated the defending champion, Nam Dinh Steel Blue, in both the National Super Cup of Tien Phong newspaper and the first leg of LPBank V.League 2025/26.
Three points is a must for Hanoi Police when meeting SLNA as they are currently only 1 point behind the top team Ninh Binh and have played 1 less match. In this round, Ninh Binh will meet Coach Harry Kewell’s Hanoi Club, a difficult obstacle to overcome. Defeating SLNA will therefore open up the opportunity for Hanoi Police to take the top spot.
Form, head-to-head record and strength
In the last 5 meetings, Hanoi Police won 3 matches, drew 2, the statistics show their superiority over SLNA. The Nghe An team has just gone through a series of 5 matches with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. SLNA's most impressive victory took place on August 23 when they defeated Nam Dinh Blue Steel 3-1 at home.
Hanoi Police were even more impressive when they won 4/5 matches and only drew 1 match against Beijing (China). Mr. Mano Polking's team won both matches against the two championship candidates, Nam Dinh Steel Blue and Hanoi Club.
In terms of force, both teams will have the strongest number of troops for the confrontation on the afternoon of October 18.
