New Super Eagles wing sensation, Chidera Ejuke will be gunning for his 3rd Russian Premier League goal in 14 appearances for CSKA Moscow as they go on the road trip against Rostov tonight (Thursday).
The 22-year old Nigerian international has hit the ground running in only his first season in the Russian topflight having bagged two goals and one assist in 13 appearances so far this season.
Ejuke and CSKA Moscow has gone without a win in their last four league outings and will be hoping to return to winning ways by recording the double over Rostov.
