The No. 11 Arkansas soccer team returns to Razorback Field at 6:30 p.m. Thursday to face Alabama, seeking to rebound from a 1-0 loss at No. 19 Georgia on Sunday.
The Razorbacks (7-3-3, 5-1-1 SEC) will play without coach Colby Hale, who serves a one-match suspension after receiving a red card against the Bulldogs.
Arkansas is tied with No. 4 Tennessee for first place in the SEC regular-season standings with three matches remaining, holding a tiebreaker due to more goals scored against common opponents.
The Crimson Tide (10-4-1, 4-3) enters on a two-match winning streak, having defeated Missouri and Auburn.
Arkansas' top goal scorers are Zoe Susi, Vailana Tu’ua, and Kyndal Ewertz, each with 4 goals.
