Today (March 12), Vietnamese football fans will turn their attention to the matches of the 1/8 round of the 2023/2024 National Cup. Teams such as Thanh Hoa, Hanoi FC and Hai Phong will compete.
The defending champions Thanh Hoa will host Phu Dong Ninh Binh at home. This is a fateful rematch between coach Popov and his team against their opponents. In the 2023 season, Thanh Hoa will also meet Phu Dong Ninh Binh in the quarter-finals.
In that match, Thanh Hoa was not allowed to use foreign players, so the team encountered many difficulties. Thanh Hoa had to rely on the brilliance of Le Thanh Binh to win with a score of 1-0.
In this reunion, Thanh Hoa will not be allowed to use foreign players, so despite having home field advantage, coach Popov and his team are still expected to face many difficulties against Phu Dong Ninh Binh.
In addition to Thanh Hoa, Hai Phong also faced a weaker opponent, Quang Nam. This was a match where coach Van Sy Son did not have the strongest squad as Tang Tien was suspended and they had just parted ways with Dinh Bac and Lamothe Pierre.
This season, Quang Nam beat Hai Phong 2-0 in the first leg of the 2023/2024 V-League. However, that was when the team played at home. In this match, they have to play at Lach Tray, so it is predicted that Coach Van Sy Son's team will have difficulty repeating the above achievement.
The remaining notable match in the 1/8 round of the National Cup 203/2024 taking place today is the match between Hanoi FC and Ha Tinh. In this match, Hanoi FC is of course rated higher, but Ha Tinh is a team with a very annoying defensive counter-attacking style of play.
Ha Tinh is the team that held Hanoi FC to a 1-1 draw in the first leg of the 2023/2024 V-League. In addition, coach Nguyen Thanh Cong and his team also almost won against CAHN. Therefore, the home team at Hang Day Stadium cannot be complacent.
