Statistics before the match between Dong A Thanh Hoa and Song Lam Nghe An
Home team Dong A Thanh Hoa has more advantages, but away team Song Lam Nghe An still has reason to believe they will get points when leaving Thanh Hoa stadium.
Lam River Nghe Anhas not won in the last 10 official matches against the Thanh team. The Vinh team only had 4 draws and lost 6 matches. And in those 10 matches, the Nghe team did not score more than 1 goal in any match, even failing to score in 8 matches. These numbers show the poor performance of Song Lam Nghe An against the neighboring team in recent years.
The upcoming away trip of coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team is predicted to be very difficult as the home team is determined to get the first 3 points under new coach Tomislav Steinbruckner.

Although it is difficult to win 3 points, Song Lam Nghe An still has grounds to hope for 1 point when leaving Thanh Hoa stadium. Because Dong A Thanh Hoa has 5 draws out of 8 matches played at home. Along with that is the record of 12 consecutive matches without knowing the taste of victory on all fronts. In 7/8 recent matches, the Thanh team has also been unable to keep a clean sheet. These are alarming numbers for the Thanh team.
Meanwhile, Song Lam Nghe An has not lost in the last 4 matches (2 wins and 2 draws). In the last 6 matches, the Nghe An team has scored goals. It can be said that the performance of coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team is much better than that of Dong A Thanh Hoa.
The only problem for Song Lam Nghe An is their away record. The Nghe An team has not been able to find a single away win this season and is one of the two teams with the worst away record in the V.League. Therefore, coach Phan Nhu Thuat and his team need to improve their mentality and tactics to achieve favorable results in away matches.
Individually, the most prominent star on the sideEast Asia Thanh Hoais midfielder Luiz Antonio. The Brazilian midfielder has 6 goals and 7 assists in all competitions. However, Luiz Antonio's recent poor form has caused the Thanh Hoa team to decline. This makes Thanh Hoa fans even more worried when Captain Doan Ngoc Tan suffered a serious injury and had to sit out the rest of the season.
Another player who is also very noteworthy on the home team is Lucas Ribamar. The Brazilian striker has scored 5 goals and 6 assists after 12 matches in the V.League. This is a pretty good number for Lucas Ribamar and the defenders of Song Lam Nghe An must pay special attention to this Brazilian striker.
On the away team side, the most outstanding player was Michael Olaha. The Nigerian striker scored in two consecutive matches and was also the player who scored the 1,000th goal for the Nghe team in the National Championship.

In the past, Michael Olaha scored right at Thanh Hoa Stadium to help Song Lam Nghe An win 3-2 in the first leg of the 2018 National Cup semi-final.
In the last time the Nghe An team won against Dong A Thanh Hoa, midfielder Ho Khac Ngoc was the one who scored the only goal from the penalty spot. Therefore, Nghe An fans also have high hopes that the midfielder wearing the number 32 shirt will help the home team erase the curse of not winning against the Thanh team and erase the curse of not winning away this season.
Although the record against Dong A Thanh Hoa is not good, but with the home team also having quite bad form, this will be an opportunity for the teachers and students.Coach Phan Nhu ThuatAccumulate valuable points in the fierce V.League relegation race.
The match between Dong A Thanh Hoa and Song Lam Nghe An will take place at 6:00 p.m. on April 12 at Thanh Hoa Stadium.
