As players, Le Huynh Duc and Kiatisak were the two best strikers in Southeast Asia. These two famous strikers often faced each other at the national level, when playing for two fateful teams, Vietnam and Thailand. Up to now, as coaches, Le Huynh Duc and Kiatisak are still on opposite sides of the battle line, but at the top football playground in Vietnam, when they respectively lead HAGL and Binh Duong.
In the 2023 season, when he started his assignment at Binh Duong Club in May, Coach Le Huynh Duc had 2 encounters with HAGL. The team from Thu Dau Mot suffered both defeats against Mr. Kiatisak's team (1 in V-League, 1 in National Cup).
If we look at the head-to-head record in the last 5 matches between the two teams, the mountain town team is clearly superior. The Pleiku home team has won 3 times and drawn 2 matches against Binh Duong Club.
Coach Kiatisak's HAGL has yet to taste victory in the 2023 - 2024 season
However, the match in round 4 of V-League 2023 - 2024 taking place at 5:00 p.m. on December 3 is a completely different story. At this time, Binh Duong Club of coach Le Huynh Duc is holding the upper hand (if considering the actual performance of the two teams in the early stages of the season). It can be said that the former striker of the Vietnamese national team is very promising to help Binh Duong Club "turn the tables", breaking the streak of draws and losses against HAGL Club.
The team from the capital has been in good form since the beginning of the 2023-2024 season. Coach Le Huynh Duc had a smooth start when he won both of his first two matches in the V-League, against Binh Dinh Club (2-0) and Hai Phong Club (1-0). After the unfortunate 0-1 loss to Hanoi Club in the make-up match of round 1, Binh Duong Club immediately regained their spirit by winning Ho Chi Minh City Club with a score of 2-1 in the National Cup.
Coach Le Huynh Duc has a great opportunity to defeat Coach Kiatisak.
Besides, the number 1 striker of Binh Duong team, Nguyen Tien Linh, has also "quenched his thirst" for goals. The first goal of this season may help the striker born in 1997 regain his scoring feeling and confidence in the coming time. Besides, striker Nguyen Tran Viet Cuong is also in good form, continuously scoring goals for Binh Duong Club.
On the other hand, HAGL is going through a difficult early season. Coach Kiatisak's team still doesn't know what it feels like to win, after a total of 4 matches since the 2023-2024 season started. HAGL had 1 draw and 2 losses in the first 3 rounds of the V-League. Most recently, the Pleiku home team lost to the Hanoi Police Club (1-2) in the National Cup.
Tien Linh has "opened his scoring account" in the 2023 - 2024 season
Although HAGL is playing at home in Pleiku and is eager to win their first match, the percentage of chance for them to create a surprise against Binh Duong Club at this time is very low. The defensive system of the mountain town team is quite fragile. Meanwhile, the attack line, despite the addition of foreign striker Jhon Cley, has not shown positive signs. HAGL also suffered a loss in terms of force, when domestic striker Dinh Thanh Binh was injured and is expected to be out of action for more than a month.
Currently, HAGL is at the bottom of the V-League standings, with only 1 point after 3 rounds. Meanwhile, Binh Duong Club of coach Le Huynh Duc is in the top 3 with 6 points.
