In their last game against the Missouri Tigers, the Razorbacks showcased a balanced attack and solid defense that led them to a 75-68 victory. They demonstrated efficiency from the field with a 48 percent shooting rate and were particularly dominant in the paint, scoring 38 points. Their ability to convert turnovers into points was notable as they scored 18 points off turnovers.

However, this performance came after a challenging away game against the Tennessee Lady Volunteers where they struggled with shooting accuracy. The Razorbacks only managed a field goal percentage of 32 percent and were outrebounded significantly by Tennessee's towering presence inside.

Despite these inconsistencies, there is optimism surrounding Arkansas' ability to bounce back. In another recent away game against Florida Gators, although ending in an 85-81 defeat, Arkansas showed resilience and offensive firepower by sinking an impressive 41 percent from beyond the arc.

The upcoming match presents an opportunity for Arkansas to leverage its strengths: aggressive defense leading to fast-break opportunities and efficient scoring inside. With home support behind them at Bud Walton Arena – known for its raucous atmosphere – it could provide that extra push needed for victory.
