National Cup, a chance to save the season for V-League teams
Hanoi Police Club (CAHN) has just finished the 2024-2025 V-League in third place overall, previously being the runner-up of the Southeast Asian Cup C1. However, the police team still hopes to win the final title this season, to avoid a season without a trophy and to have a place in the AFC Champions League Two next season. If they overcome The Cong Viettel (7:15 p.m. at Hang Day Stadium), the CAHN team will have a great chance to win the championship.

The Viettel The Cong side is also very eager for the championship after going through a season that did not meet expectations. They were at one point leading the V-League rankings but lost steam at the decisive moment, leading to falling out of the medal group.
The match between SLNA and Binh Duong (6 p.m., at Vinh Stadium) will decide which team will enter the final. Although SLNA has home field advantage, its strength and performance are not considered as high as their opponents. The team from the land of Thu has overcome two strong opponents, Nam Dinh in the round of 16 and Ninh Binh in the quarterfinals. Against SLNA, who is considered inferior, Binh Duong has a great chance to enter the final.
In the most recent confrontation at Vinh Stadium in V-League 2024 - 2025, SLNA won the away team 1-0. Although Binh Duong created an overwhelming game, Tran Manh Quynh's goal in the 90+2 minute decided the match. SLNA stayed in the league one round early, but the final ranking was only 1 point higher than the team that had to play in the play-off match, Da Nang.
On the other side of the field, Binh Duong Club ended the 2024 - 2025 V-League in 7th place, an achievement that is not commensurate with what they were invested in at the beginning of the season. The ups and downs in the form of the pillars, along with changes in the coaching cabin, caused Binh Duong to fall freely in phase 2. Therefore, the National Cup title is considered a gift that the team gives to the fans of Thu Dau Mot after an unsatisfactory V-League season. If they beat SLNA, Binh Duong will meet Viettel or CAHN in the final. The National Cup championship will help Binh Duong Club win a ticket to the Asian Cup C2 next season.
