The Missouri Tigers women's basketball has a good chance of earning their first conference win of the season against Arkansas.

After losing the first four conference games to ranked opponents, the Tigers are set to face a fellow 0-4 team in the Razorbacks. There are certainly a lot of similarities between the two programs, as Arkansas is also in its first season under a new head coach.

Beating the Razorbacks will not be an easy feat. Within the two similar SEC opponents of Vanderbilt and Alabama, Arkansas took closer losses in both games. Missouri will have to pull from its strengths from beyond the arc. The Tigers sit as one of the best three-point shooting teams in women's basketball and the best in the conference with a 37.8 three-point percentage.

The Tigers will take the court against the Razorbacks at 6:30 p.m. at Mizzou Arena on Thursday.
