Super Eagles ace Yakubu Aiyegbeni who recently pitched tent with
League one Side Coventry, may open goal account against visiting Swindon Town
on Saturday.
The former Portsmouth and Everton forward has earned cumulative
49 minutes playing time with his new team coming in as substitute the 1-1 away
draw against AFC Wimbledon where he saw 29 minutes action and 2-1 home defeat
of Gillingham where he played for 20
minutes.
Swindon Town who are equally in the relegation zone but two
places above bottom placed Coventry will be guests at the Ricoh Arena and Coach Russell Slade and his boys have eyes set on
earning crucial three points as they attempt to swim out of relegation
waters.
The embattled side have only managed to garner 25 points in 32
matches with coach Slade telling whoever cares to listen that the Yak was
specifically engaged to score goals to enable them side escape relegation.
Some Coventry fans are already predicting that the Nigerian
international who scored 24 goals in 43 appearances for Chinese Super League Guangzhou
R&F in the 2012/2013 season could open his goal account against Swindon.
