However, head coach Nguyen Dinh Long still wants to try his hand in the qualifying round, to help student players gain experience and, importantly, select the most elite squad.
Ton Duc Thang University has a fairly even squad and is rated higher than Gia Dinh University, which is participating in the tournament for the first time. Coach Dinh Long has watched Gia Dinh University play and commented that this is a good "test" for the home team to carry out professional plans. Gia Dinh University, with its young squad and relaxed mentality, will be very unpredictable when entering the match. However, with the nature of an opening match, Ton Duc Thang University will certainly field its strongest squad and aim for victory to satisfy the home fans.

In the remaining match of Group 1 of the Ho Chi Minh City regional qualifying round, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Transport team will face Dai Viet Sai Gon College (at 9am). Always considered a strong team, head coach Ho Van Lung said that the Ho Chi Minh City University of Transport team will compete with the highest determination in the opening match. "In the first tournament, we stumbled in the first match and were unfortunately eliminated. This time, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Transport team has learned from experience and will play more confidently, trying to win," Mr. Lung emphasized.
In the framework of Group 2 of Ho Chi Minh City region, the team of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (Ho Chi Minh City National University) will face the team of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH) at 5:00 p.m. today. This promises to be a fierce encounter, as the two teams are considered equally matched.
The HUTECH team has experience competing since the first season - 2023 and still retains many key members in the squad. The HUTECH team once impressed with a squad of players with good physique, methodical and technical playing style. On the other hand, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology team has a rich tradition in student football in the past, but is currently rebuilding the movement and is also a rookie of the TNSV THACO Cup 2024. Right in the first time participating, the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology team expressed its desire to affirm its position, when asking for the help of a former professional player who played for Saigon Port Club - Nguyen Van Tuan. Under the coaching hand of Tuan "den" (nickname of coach Nguyen Van Tuan), the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology team promises to be an "interesting unknown", able to bring many surprises in the qualifying round.
