Madrid defender Chidinma Okeke is anxious to make her maiden appearance in the Madrid Derby as they take on Osinachi Ohale's CD Tacon at the Ciudad Deportiva Real Madrid on Sunday.

The first Spanish capital women's derby will pitch Okeke against Ohale, with the two Super Falcons stars called up for the Olympic qualifyingÃ‚Â tie against Cote d'Ivoire next month.

The FC Robo Queens product has featuredÃ‚Â in all three opening matches for Oscar FernÃƒÂ¡ndez's team since her arrival in August, putting up a solid performance to inspire their fine start.

In three games, Madrid have accrued six points and are ninth on the log ahead of their close rivals Tacon.

For 13th-placed Ohale's side, they will aim to bounce back from last week's 5-1 humiliation at Logrono in front of their fans.

The 19-year-old sensation has revealed she is looking forward to the encounter.

"Can't wait to feature in my first Madrid Derby in Spain..let go girlsÃ‚Â vamos chicas.! Anxious moment!" Okeke said via her Twitter account.
