TPO - Football commentary Hanoi Police vs Tai Po, Asian Cup C2 - Team information, expected lineup, performance, history of confrontation. Hanoi Police (CAHN) will meet the top team Tai Po. This is the best opportunity for the Vietnamese representative to take the top spot from their opponent.

Pre-match comments Hanoi Police vs Tai Po

Tai Po is not the most famous football team in Hong Kong China. In terms of name, this club is probably not as prominent as Lee Mans or Kitchee. But Tai Po holds the record. They became the first club in history in Hong Kong to win the first, second and third division championships.

Currently, Tai Po is also the leading football team in this place. In the 2024/25 season, they showed their dominance in the domestic league when they won the national championship. Tai Po's squad has many "mercenaries" from Brazil such as Gérson Vieira, former U17 Brazil player or Igor Sartori, Patrick Valverde, who have played for many years in the highest league of the Samba country.

With 12 names coming from abroad, Tai Po is truly a formidable team. That was shown through the statement of Mano Polking. In the press conference before the match, the coach of CAHN said: “I know some coaches and assistants working in Hong Kong, China. I myself have researched and have a certain understanding of football here. Tai Po is the strongest team in Hong Kong, China. They have a position of complete dominance in the domestic league.

This club has many national team players. It will create many difficulties and we have to try our best. Matches in the Asian Cup C2 allow teams to use up to 7 foreign players. Therefore, I believe both teams will make full use of this right and tomorrow's match will be very tense."

Tai Po has an impressive foreign force.

Form, history of confrontations between Hanoi Police and Tai Po

Polking’s reticence was entirely justified. Tai Po had beaten MacArtur, who were considered much stronger, in their opening match. The 2-1 win took Tai Po to the top of the group and put a lot of pressure on the remaining teams, including CAHN, who could only manage a 2-2 draw with Beijing Guoan.

But anyway, CAHN is still rated much higher than the representative of Hong Kong China. The balanced force between domestic and foreign players brings confidence to the representative of LPBank V.League 1. Moreover, today they play at home, where CAHN has been unbeaten in the last 6 matches with 5 of them being victories.

The only problem that gives Vietnamese fans a headache is probably CAHN's ability to take advantage. In the recent victory over Cebu in the Southeast Asian Cup C1, it took CAHN 24 shots to score and that goal only came in the last minutes. The heavy dependence on Artur and Alan also makes CAHN fragile if these two stars lose form or cannot play.

Expected lineup Hanoi Police vs Tai Po

CAHN : Nguyen Filip, Hugo Gomes, Viet Anh, Adou Minh, Jason Quang Vinh Pendant, Van Do, Vitao, Jackie Chan, Stefan Mauk, Alan, Leo Artur.

Tai Po: Tse Ka Wing, Lee Ka Ho, Gabriel Cividini, Daciel, Weverton Rangel, Satori, Mikael, Patrick Valverde, Michel Renner, Chan Siu Kwan, Temelkovski.

Score prediction: Hanoi Police 3-1 Tai Po
