Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan will be chasing his 21st goal of the season this evening as Al Ain travels to take on Al Nasr in the UAE top flight.
The 27-year-old’s goal returns this season has been just phenomenal – scoring at least a goal in his last 10 outings for the UAE champions.
The ex Sunderland, Rennes and Udinese hitman could even exceed his 22-goal tally that won him the Goal King award in his debut season in the Pro League.
A win for Al Ain on Sunday will ensure they maintain or extend their four point lead at the top of the league while retaining their enviable unbeaten start to the season.
Gyan’s red-hot form will be a massive boost for Ghana at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations if the Black Stars captain is able to replicate his magnificent club form at international level.
