What to Know

The #4 Arizona Wildcats won both of their matches against the Stanford Cardinal last season (81-69 and 84-80) and are aiming for the same result Saturday. Arizona and Stanford will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 8 p.m. ET at Maples Pavilion. The Wildcats should still be riding high after a big victory, while Stanford will be looking to right the ship.

Arizona took their contest against the California Golden Bears on Thursday by a conclusive 85-62 score. Five players on Arizona scored in the double digits: forward Azuolas Tubelis (23), guard Pelle Larsson (16), center Oumar Ballo (14), guard Cedric Henderson Jr. (11), and guard Kylan Boswell (10).

The Cardinal lost a heartbreaker to the Arizona State Sun Devils when they met last December, and they left with a heavy heart again on Thursday. Stanford fell just short of ASU by a score of 69-65. A silver lining for Stanford was the play of forward Brandon Angel, who had 13 points and five assists along with seven rebounds.

Arizona is the favorite in this one, with an expected 9-point margin of victory. They are currently four-for-four against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

Stanford's defeat took them down to 10-14 while Arizona's win pulled them up to 22-3. In their victory, Arizona relied heavily on Azuolas Tubelis, who dropped a double-double on 23 points and 14 boards. the Cardinal will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
