The match between Ninh Bình and SLNA at Ninh Bình’s home ground is expected to be the highlight of round 10 in the V-League 2025/26, with the home team urgently needing a win to solidify their position at the top of the table.
Following a disappointing 1-1 draw against Becamex TP.HCM, Ninh Bình revealed weaknesses in finishing despite dominating possession. Coach Gerard Albadalejo’s squad knows that if they don’t improve their chance conversion, they risk losing their advantage to CAHN, who trails by just one point and still has a game in hand.
On the other hand, under coach Văn Sỹ Sơn’s leadership, SLNA has focused on a tight defensive approach to carefully accumulate points in their tough battle against relegation (evident from their three 1-1 draws in the last four matches).
However, securing a draw at the stadium of a strong title contender like Ninh Bình will be a much tougher challenge than their previous games.
With home advantage and a balanced squad, Ninh Bình is rated higher, especially with key players like Hoàng Đức maintaining consistent form. Yet, if they continue to waste chances, the Capital team might have to settle for another draw. A victory would affirm their strength and championship ambitions, but to achieve this, Ninh Bình must learn to "seal the game" earlier.
