In their last game against the Tigers at Rupp Arena, Kentucky emerged victorious with a 74-71 win. Their performance was marked by a strong shooting efficiency from inside the arc, where they converted 58 percent of their two-point attempts. The team also demonstrated excellent ball distribution and decision-making with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 3.6.


Prior to that victory, Kentucky faced off against Louisville Cardinals and secured an emphatic win with a scoreline of 86-63. This game underscored their offensive prowess as they shot an outstanding 60 percent from the field and dominated points in the paint with 46 points scored close to the basket.

The upcoming match at Coleman Coliseum presents another challenging environment for Kentucky. The venue is known for its energetic atmosphere which could play into Alabama's favor; however, if recent performances are any indication, Kentucky has shown resilience and adaptability regardless of location.
