Cincinnati is trying to get back on track and remain tied for fourth place in the conference standings, while Central Florida is coming off a last-second loss at Memphis on Thursday night.

The conference foes faced off just over two weeks ago and the Bearcats picked up a 73-64 win against UCF as Viktor Lakhin led the way with a team-high 20 points and eight rebounds.

After going down with a sprained right ankle against Tulane, Lakhin missed the last two games and is questionable to play today. Kalu Ezikpe is expected to start for a third straight outing.
