The draw placed 14 teams into 7 matchups for Round 1. Becamex TP.HCM, recently relegated to the First Division, will begin their campaign to return to the V-League with an away match against Van Hien University.

In addition to the encounter between Van Hien University and Becamex TP.HCM, the match between PVF-CAND and Long An also draws considerable attention. PVF-CAND had to drop to the First Division after failing to secure their place in the V-League, and thus they are regarded as one of the teams with strong ambitions to compete for promotion.

Two newcomers, Lam Dong and Hue, will face TP.HCM and Dong Thap respectively. Meanwhile, Thai Nguyen will host Quy Nhon United, while Quang Ninh takes on Hung Yen on the opening day.
