What strategy will Song Lam Nghe An use when meeting Nam Dinh Blue Steel?

With home ground advantage and superior squad quality,Nam Dinh Green Steelwill aim to win all 3 points in this match. Therefore, they will create suffocating pressure on goalkeeper Nguyen Van Viet's goal.

Coach Vu Hong Viet's favorite formation will be 4-2-3-1. With the highest spearhead on the attack line being striker Nguyen Xuan Son. This season, the top scorer of V.League 2023/2024 has not scored any goals. Therefore, this striker born in 1997 will try very hard to find the first goals.

Supporting Nguyen Xuan Son will be the trio Hendrio Araujo, Nguyen Van Toan and Ly Cong Hoang Anh. These are all players with very good attacking qualities. That is Hendrio Araujo who is comprehensive in both creating and finishing or Nguyen Van Toan who is fast and agile. It can be said that this will be an extremely difficult match for the defense of the Nghe An team.

Fortunately, Song Lam Nghe An welcomed the return of many key players in this match. They are foreign player Sebastian Zaracho, veteran Tran Dinh Hoang or young player Tran Nam Hai. Besides, players like Ho Van Cuong and Ho Khac Luong are also in the best physical condition to be ready for the battle.

With many personnel options,Coach Pham Anh Tuanwill have calculations to arrange the squad reasonably. That will probably be the 5-3-2 formation. In which, the 3 central defenders are Ho Khac Luong, Le Van Thanh and Sebastian Zaracho. Hopefully, this 3 central defenders will complement and cover each other well to lock down the sharp points of the Nam Dinh Steel Blue.

The two wingers will be the priorities for the defense. Vuong Van Huy and Tran Dinh Hoang will most likely be the chosen names. The experience of veteran Dinh Hoang and the "toughness" of Van Huy will help the defense of the Nghe An team become more solid.

Meanwhile, Ho Van Cuong and Bui Thanh Duc will be the tactical cards used in the second half. This will help the two wings maintain their physical strength and improve their attack front. Especially young defender Ho Van Cuong, who has very good attacking ability of Song Lam Nghe An.

Coach Pham Anh Tuan's biggest headache is the midfield. Midfielder Phan Ba ​​Quyen is still uncertain about his return in this match. Meanwhile, Tran Nam Hai has just returned from injury. Facing a very strong midfield of the home team, Song Lam Nghe An needs strong warriors to divide the play of the team from Thanh Nam.

This is entirely possible when coach Vu Hong Viet's team has been in constant turmoil since the beginning of the season. Having too many options has made it impossible for Nam Dinh Steel Blue to find the most satisfactory lineup.

The number of 1 goal after 3 matches has said that. The team from Thanh Nam may be strong individually but the cohesion between them is not there so the playing style is somewhat worse than last season. Therefore, ifLam River Nghe AnIf the team is physically fit enough to deploy a fast pressing style of play, it can completely limit a lot of the danger on the home team's side.

On the offensive front, the 4 consecutive matches without conceding a goal of Nam Dinh Steel Blue will be a challenge for Michael Olaha and Benjamin Kuku. The home team's solidity is thanks to Caio César. The Brazilian midfielder is like a cleaning machine in front of the defense of the team from Thanh Nam. This makes the task of Duong Thanh Hao and Lucas Alves much easier. Meanwhile, Nguyen Phong Hong Duy and To Van Vu will be pushed up to attack more.

However, this is also the weak point in the defense of Nam Dinh Steel Blue. The pair of full-backs' enthusiasm for attacking creates gaps in the two wings. Hoang Anh Gia Lai almost successfully exploited this weakness in the last round.

Meanwhile, if the duo Michael Olaha and Benjamin Kuku have a reasonable distance like in the previous match, they can make the home team's defenders have a hard day's work. Especially when Benjamin Kuku has opened the barrel and has a certain confidence.

Facing the Blue Steel Nam Dinh at Thien Truong Stadium is always a difficult challenge. But Nghe An fans always hope that Pham Anh Tuan and his team will have an excellent match to earn points right at Thien Truong Stadium.
