With excellent performances in the last 4 matches, Nghe An fans expect a win for their team. Although, Song Lam Nghe An will have to welcome their tough opponent Dong A Thanh Hoa.

In recent years, Dong A Thanh Hoa has always been a tough opponent for the Nghe An team. For 7 consecutive matches in V.League,Lam River Nghe Anhave not known the taste of victory against the Thanh team. Therefore, this will be a match that promises many difficulties for coach Pham Anh Tuan and his team.

However, with their good form in recent rounds, Song Lam Nghe An is quite confident in welcoming the neighboring team. Especially when the 5-match unbeaten streak of the Nghe team includes names at the top of the rankings such as Nam Dinh Green Steel, Becamex Binh Duong or MerryLand Quy Nhon Binh Dinh.

Along with confidence is the physical strength that has been restored after the recent V.League break. This will help Tran Dinh Hoang, Tran Nam Hai or Vuong Van Huy have the best physical condition. Especially when, the defense of Song Lam Nghe An will have to face the monster named Rimario Gordon.

The Jamaican striker's bravery is a nightmare for defenders in the V.League. After 21 matches, Rimario Gordon has scored 9 goals and had 2 assists.

However, in the last 11 matches, the Jamaican striker has only scored 1 goal. Rimario Gordon's poor performance is one of the reasons why Dong A Thanh Hoa has stagnated in the second leg of the V.League. Therefore, if Song Lam Nghe An's defense maintains its form as in recent matches, it will neutralize Rimario Gordon in the upcoming match.

In contrast to the Jamaican striker, the midfielderLuiz Antonio is in very good form in recent matches. The Brazilian midfielder has scored 4 goals and made 1 assist in the last 5 matches. It can be said that Luiz Antonio is the biggest hope of Thanh Hoa fans in the upcoming match.

Facing the veteran Brazilian midfielder will be a young duoPham Ba Quyenand Nguyen Quang Vinh. The youth and enthusiasm of this duo helped Song Lam Nghe An have a good position against the quality midfielders of the tournament.

Notable among them is the ability to press quickly, causing the opponent's play to fall apart. Typically, in the difficult match at Thien Truong Stadium, the Nghe An team made the team at the top of the table sweat. Hopefully, the midfield of Song Lam Nghe An will continue to maintain high performance to help the home team get a good result in the upcoming match.

On the attack line, there may be some minor changes. Striker Michael Olaha will still be the main striker for the Nghe An team. However, young talent Le Dinh Long Vu will most likely only be used in the second half after returning from a training trip in China with the Vietnam U19 team.

The replacement for Le Dinh Long Vu will be striker Phan Xuan Dai. The player from Yen Thanh has also made great strides this season. Therefore, Nghe An fans do not have to worry too much about this change.

On the contrary, Dong A Thanh Hoa's defense is lacking the necessary solidity in the return leg. The absence of a central defenderGustavo Sant'Ana has seriously degraded the Thanh team's defense. His replacement, Ben van Meurs, has not been able to meet the requirements of coach Velizar Popov. And that is one of the reasons why the Thanh team has declined in the second half of the season.

The decline of Dong A Thanh Hoa is the best opportunity for Song Lam Nghe An to erase the streak of 7 consecutive matches without a win. And the victory over the Thanh team will also help the army.Coach Pham Anh Tuantake a big step forward in the relegation race.

Hopefully, Song Lam Nghe An will continue to have an excellent match to bring joy to the home audience.

The match between Song Lam Nghe An and Dong A Thanh Hoa will take place at 5:00 p.m. on June 15 at Vinh Stadium. Stands A and B will remain open for free for spectators to enter the stadium to cheer for their team.
