BETTING LINE Arkansas is a 6-point favorite.
NOTABLE Missouri beat Arkansas 83-79 in overtime at Mizzou Arena two weeks ago. Xavier Pinson led the Tigers with 24 points and Mason Jones and Reggie Chaney each scored 17 to lead the Razorbacks … Arkansas sophomore guard Isaiah Joe, who has missed the last five games since undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee on Feb. 4, has practiced this week, but it’s uncertain if he’ll play today, Razorbacks Coach Eric Musselman said … Missouri guard Mark Smith (back) will miss his seventh consecutive game, Tigers coach Cuonzo Martin said, while center Jeremiah Tilmon (foot) is questionable. Tilmon has missed 13 games this season, including the last four … Arkansas has lost four consecutive SEC home games for the first time since joining the conference for the 1991-92 season. It’s the longest home conference losing streak for the Razorbacks since the 1970-71 season when they lost seven consecutive Southwest Conference games in Fayetteville … Arkansas lost five consecutive games since winning at Alabama two weeks ago … Missouri is 1-8 on the road this season and 0-6 in SEC road games.
