In the early match of round 13 taking place on August 26, Khanh Hoa FC have an away match against Ba Ria-Vung Tau. This is expected to be a tough match for Khanh Hoa FC.
 
Apart from the 0-1 loss of Pho Hien to Hue and the lackluster performance of People's Public Security in the 0-0 draw with Long An, most of the teams on the upper half of the table got three points in round 12. The slowdown of People's Public Security helped to create a condition for the teams below to move forward, notably Khanh Hoa FC. The victory against Dak Lak helped Khanh Hoa FC get 24 points, jumping to the top of the table.

Khanh Hoa FC players are showing stability in form in recent rounds, with a streak of six consecutive unbeaten matches, including four wins and two draws. However, they still have a long road ahead them towards to target of getting a promotion slot to V.League 1 next season. Their opponents such as People's Public Security, Quang Nam and Ba Ria Vung Tau are still following closely. Just a slip in the competitions with the top 5 teams, the position of Khanh Hoa FC will be threatened.
 
From round 13 to round 17, Khanh Hoa FC will face strong opponents before having relatively easy matches with the lower teams. Specifically, they will meet Ba Ria-Vung Tau in round 13, People's Public Security in round 15, Quang Nam in round 16, and Pho Hien in round 17. This requires Khanh Hoa FC players to have high concentration and make a lot of effort to be able to keep their current position.
 
Compared to the somewhat unstable form of Ba Ria-Vung Tau, the opponents of Khanh Hoa FC in round 13, the performances of Khanh Hoa FC have been much better. In the home match at 19-8 Nha Trang Stadium in the first leg, Khanh Hoa FC had a win of luck against Ba Ria-Vung Tau, scoring in injury time. Hopefully, this time, coach Vo Dinh Tan and his players will have more confidence to continue to overcome their opponents.
