EMENIKE Rated 50 - 50 For Benfica Game

The availability of Emmanuel Emenike for Spartak Moscow's UEFA Champions League group game against Benfica on Tuesday remains unresolved.

The Nigeria international striker missed last weekend's league match against Anzhi Makhachkala due to back pains.

According to Russian media, the health of Emenike has not improved, the Spanish coach of the red and white has disclosed.

''We will see how he (Emenike) will feel in the evening workout then make a decision whether or not to include him,'' Unai Emery was quoted as saying by championat.com.

Emenike has netted thrice in his last four appearances in  Europe's top club competition.
