With 1 win since the beginning of the tournament and all the rest are draws and losses, Song Lam Nghe An is going through a difficult period. In the most recent round, the Nghe An team lost 1-2 to Cong An Ha Noi.

A weak force and lack of depth are considered the reasons why Song Lam Nghe An was exhausted in the match against Cong An Ha Noi. Despite taking the lead, the Nghe An players could not protect the result and lost 1-2.

The match against Viettel FC at Hang Day Stadium is predicted to be extremely difficult for Song Lam Nghe An. Because the home team is holding a quality squad, with many national players such as: Tien Dung, Thanh Binh, Hoang Duc or Manh Dung.

Although Viettel FC is a candidate for the championship, it has disappointed fans when it is in the second half of the rankings. Coach Thach Bao Khanh's team is under intense pressure when there are many teams behind that are trying to surpass Viettel FC when they are only 1 to 2 points behind.

Tonight's match (June 1), between Viettel FC and Song Lam Nghe An, is important for both teams in the race to the Top 8. If they come up empty-handed, the losing team will be at risk of having to play in the relegation zone in phase 2.
