A thrilling encounter is on the cards in the Saudi Pro League today as former Super Eagles attacker Odion Ighalo’s Al Wehda takes on Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong’s Al Kholood.
Ighalo, who has made 19 league appearances this season, will be looking to end his five-game goal drought and help Al Wehda secure their first win in seven matches.
The Mecca-based team is currently struggling in the relegation zone and desperately needs a victory to boost their survival hopes.
On the other hand, Troost-Ekong’s Al Kholood is seeking to bounce back from their 2-0 defeat to Al-Orobah FC on Valentine’s Day. The team will be counting on their captain’s leadership and defensive prowess to contain Ighalo’s attacking threats.
Despite a challenging season, Ighalo remains one of the Saudi Pro League’s most feared strikers. The 35-year-old has consistently scored at least 12 goals in each of the last four seasons and will be eager to add to his tally against Al Kholood.
The match promises to be an exciting encounter between two Super Eagles legends, with Ighalo’s attacking skills pitted against Troost-Ekong’s defensive expertise. Football fans in Nigeria and around the world will be eagerly watching this Saudi Pro League showdown.
