Jiangsu Suning head coach Cosmin Olâroiu has named striker Richmond Boakye-Yiadom in his starting line-up for today's Chinese Super League game at Guangzhou R&F.

Suning are hoping for a second straight win after Boakye scored in his debut last week, in a 2-1 win over Tianjin Teda.

The Ghanaian is expected to be the regular marksman in the team following his growing profile as a clinical finisher.

Olâroiu is optimistic about Boakye since he trained throughout the week with no sign of the injury that kept him off for two weeks, prior last weekend.
