Identify SLNA's opponents in round 4 of V.League 2021
(Baonghean.vn) – After 3 matches with only draws and losses, Song Lam Nghe An will return to Vinh Stadium to welcome Than Quang Ninh in round 4. This is a good opportunity for the Nghe team to seek their first victory, but the away team is not an easy opponent to "bully".
In the 2020 V.League season, Than Quang Ninh Club finished in 4th place overall, but entering the 2021 season, they encountered many difficulties and crises in finance and personnel and were once classified as at risk of having to compete for relegation.
While other teams are actively preparing for the 2021 season in the transfer window, Than Quang Ninh is facing instability. Saying goodbye to head coach Phan Thanh Hung, Than Quang Ninh also lost important players such as: Captain Tuan Linh,Jeremie Lynch, Nhat Minh, Van Viet, Duong Thanh Hao, Quach Tan, Xuan Hung...
On the coaching bench, the mining team decided to appoint assistant Hoang Tho to take over. Before the new 2021 season, Than Quang Ninh had only more than 10 players at one point, so they could not split the team into two for training and competition, but they were able to bring in some quality players in time.

That is the presence of defenders, former national players Thanh Hien, Van Hau (both from Dong Thap), Duy Khanh (Quang Nam); recalling goalkeeper Hoai Anh (from HL Ha Tinh); signing a contract withGustavo Santos (SLNA), strikers Pereira Diogo, Eydison.
The remaining core of Than Quang Ninh still includes naturalized players Tran Trung Hieu (Kizito), Tien Duy, Van Khoa, The Manh. The midfield of this team also has some experienced players such as: Hong Quan, Hai Huy, Hai Long, Nguyen Sa and Nghiem Xuan Tu returning from Hai Phong.
With such a big change in force, the current achievements of coach Hoang Tho and his team are very impressive. In the first round, Than Quang Ninh defeated HL Ha Tinh 2-1 with a double from foreign player Eydison. In the second round, Than Quang Ninh also only lost 0-1 to SHB Da Nang. In the third round recently, the team from the mining land defeated Ho Chi Minh City 2-0. Thereby, they have 6 points and are ranked 2nd on the rankings.

Than Quang Ninh's potential strength was even reinforced because they welcomed the impressive return of central midfielder Hai Huy in round 3. It was this player who sealed the 2-0 victory for the home team after a training-like combination with winger Nghiem Xuan Tu.
Decoding Quang Ninh's form, it can be explained that they still retain the top quality midfielders in V.League. That is the quartet Xuan Tu, Hai Huy, Nguyen Sa, Hong Quan in the midfield with the ability to defend from afar and organize diverse attacks on both wings, especially Xuan Tu's crosses into the penalty area.
If anything, the weakness ofQuang Ninh Coalis in the defense when coach Hoang Tho was forced to trust young center back Doan Anh Viet (born in 1999) to play with Gustavo Santos in the most recent match. In return, these two players are both very tall, 1m85 and 1m92. On the left wing, Van Khoa is guarding, the Quang Ninh coaching board surprised by arranging naturalized player Trung Hieu, who is a midfielder, to play right back instead of The Manh.

WithSLNA, in this match, the Nghe team will have the service of captain Hoang Van Khanh after 2 matches being suspended. There are 3 cases where the possibility of playing is uncertain: Sy Nam, Van Lam and central defender Thai Ba Sang. However, the problem of the home team is not only the defense, SLNA's attack is very weak because Bruno Henrique and Peter Samuel have not scored any goals after 3 matches. Playing at home, but clearly Quang Ninh is not an easy opponent for coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team.
In the most recent confrontations, the two teams met 14 times, SLNA won 5, drew 5 and lost 4. However, at Vinh Stadium, the Nghe team has never lost. SLNA's record at home against this team is 4 wins and 3 draws.
