Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that former Watford star Odion Ighalo is poised to make his sixth appearance in the Chinese Super League against Tianjin Quanjian on Saturday

Based on Changchun Yatai's last workout before the trip to the Haihe Education Park Stadium, it can be revealed that the Nigeria international is expected to be named in the starting eleven.

Ighalo has sufficiently recovered from an ankle injury he picked up against Shanghai Shenhua on April 15, which led to his substitution in the 73rd minute.

The 27-year-old has netted two goals from his first five matches in the Super League.

Nigeria's best paid sportsman joined Changchun Yatai on a 4+1 year deal in the January transfer window.
