==Positions by round== This table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve the chronological evolution, any postponed matches are not included to the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. For example, if a match is scheduled for matchday 13, but then postponed and played between days 16 and 17, it will be added to the standings for day 16. {{#invoke:sports rbr table|table|sortable=y|legendpos=br |team6= [[Becamex Binh Duong FC|Becamex Bình Dương]] |res6= 5/9/7/4/2/4/3/3/4/7/7/6/6 |team12= [[Nam Dinh FC|Duoc Nam Ha Nam Dinh]] |res12= 13/10/12/13/14/14/13/14/11/12/12/12/12 |team4= [[Hanoi FC|Hanoi]] |res4= 1/8/4/5/7/3/6/8/8/6/4/5/4 |team13= [[Haiphong FC|Haiphong]] |res13= 3/5/6/8/10/9/10/11/12/13/13/13/13 |team7= [[Hoang Anh Gia Lai FC|Hoang Anh Gia Lai]] |res7= 6/3/9/7/6/8/9/6/6/4/6/7/7 |team8= [[Hong Linh Ha Tinh FC|Hong Linh Ha Tinh]] |res8= 9/12/10/9/9/12/12/12/13/11/10/9/8 |team14= [[Quang Nam FC|Quang Nam]] |res14= 14/11/8/11/13/13/14/13/14/14/14/14/14 |team1= [[Saigon FC|Saigon]] |res1= 7/2/5/1/4/5/2/1/1/1/1/1/1 |team9= [[SHB Da Nang FC|SHB Da Nang]] |res9= 10/14/14/12/11/10/11/7/7/9/9/8/9 |team11= [[Song Lam Nghe An FC|Song Lam Nghe An]] |res11= 8/6/3/3/1/2/5/9/9/10/11/10/11 |team3= [[Than Quang Ninh FC|Than Quang Ninh]] |res3= 11/7/11/10/8/6/8/4/5/5/3/4/3 |team10= [[Thanh Hóa FC|Thanh Hoa]] |res10= 12/13/13/14/12/11/7/10/10/8/8/11/10 |team5= [[Ho Chi Minh City FC|Ho Chi Minh City]] |res5= 2/1/1/6/3/1/1/2/2/3/5/3/5 |team2= [[Viettel FC|Viettel]] |res2= 4/4/2/2/5/7/4/5/3/2/2/2/2 <!-- --> |color_A=green1 |color_1-8=green1|text_1-8=Championship Round |color_9-14=yellow1|text_9-14=Relegation Round |color_B=yellow1 |update=1 October 2020|source=[http://www.vnleague.com/vdqg-vleague/bang-xep-hang/ Table by round] {{in lang|vi}}}} {{col-begin}} {{col-2}}
