Song Lam Nghe An entered round 16 with unstable performance. It was thought that after winning against Hai Phong, the team directly competing for the relegation spot in round 13, coach Phan Nhu Thuat's team would "take advantage of the momentum". However, Song Lam Nghe An disappointed when they lost to Binh Duong right after that and returned to the second-to-last position in the rankings.

In the last round, the Vinh home team was lucky to find a valuable draw against Hanoi Police. This will certainly bring a bit of a psychological advantage to coach Phan Nhu Thuat's students before entering the important match against Binh Dinh.
Meanwhile, the away team from the land of Vo is sinking deep into crisis. This team has gone through 4 matches and only earned 1 point. Binh Dinh has revealed many weaknesses such as the defense constantly making mistakes and the front line not having the necessary sharpness. Coach Bui Doan Quang Huy, despite his great efforts to adjust the squad, has not yet found a solution to the internal problems. If he does not improve soon, Binh Dinh could completely face the risk of relegation when the season ends.
