Speaking at the press conference before the match, coach Marian Mihail said that Thanh Hoa Club players are in good form, no players are injured. Therefore, FLC Thanh Hoa will play with the strongest lineup to get 3 points. SLNA Club's success in the AFC Cup is also a motivation for Thanh Hoa players to try harder in tomorrow's match.

Previously, in the first leg away match, FLC Thanh Hoa lost 1-3 to Bali United. Coach Marian Mihail said that his players played well in the first half of the match but in the second half, the opponent team dominated because they had better physical strength. Subjective factors were also one of the reasons why FLC Thanh Hoa had to accept defeat in 2/3 matches at the AFC Cup.

In response to the media's question about the reason for goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung being on the bench in the third round of the AFC Cup, coach Marian Mihail said: "Before the 2018 V-League season, Thanh Hoa participated in many matches in the international arena and these were important tests for the club.

In the first matches of the AFC Cup, we fielded many 20-21 year old players, including goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung. In the third match on March 7, I thought Tien Dung needed a break to relax his mind and reduce stress to focus on tomorrow's match. Tien Dung is a player who receives a lot of attention, when he appeared on the field, many fans asked for his autograph. Tomorrow, Tien Dung will be the starting goalkeeper."

Speaking more about the reason for Bui Tien Dung to be the main goalkeeper while FLC Thanh Hoa has 2 other very good goalkeepers, coach Marian Mihail said that he prioritized using Tien Dung because this is a player that is attracting public attention.

Tien Dung was also successful in the U-23 Vietnam shirt and creating conditions for Tien Dung is also helping to nurture talent for Thanh Hoa football in the future. "In turn during the season, I will give opportunities to the remaining two goalkeepers because all three goalkeepers of Thanh Hoa this season are very good goalkeepers," said FLC Thanh Hoa coach.

Meanwhile, Bali United head coach Widodo Cahyono Putro said that the team's goal is to play solidly against FLC Thanh Hoa and strive to get points even though they previously won at home. Some Bali United fans will also fly from Indonesia to Hanoi to cheer for the team in tomorrow's match.

After 3 matches at AFC Cup 2018, FLC Thanh Hoa Club won 1, lost 2 and had 3 points, temporarily ranked 3rd in Group G.
