Duke (12-2, 4-0) boosted its winning streak to eight games with an 89-62 triumph at SMU on Saturday.
Pitt (12-2, 3-0), which holds a five-game winning streak, will arrive with a four-game stretch of shooting better than 50 percent from the field.
Last January, the Panthers won at Duke for the first time since 1979, so that's bound to be etched in the minds of the Blue Devils, at least those who were on the team a year ago.
Pitt's 80-76 victory last season came against a Duke team that held a No. 7 ranking, so there's a similar set-up for this matchup.
The game will mark the return of former Duke player and assistant coach Jeff Capel, who's now in charge on the Pitt bench.

No. 2 Auburn will put its six-game winning streak on the line when it squares off against league newcomer Texas on Tuesday in a Southeastern Conference game in Austin, Texas.
Auburn and Texas have not faced each other on the basketball court since Dec. 16, 1955, and have played just twice in history, splitting the two contests.
The Longhorns (11-3, 0-1 SEC) jump from the frying pan into the fire as they return home on the heels of an 80-60 defeat at then-No. 13 Texas A&M on Saturday.
Texas' first league game as a member of the SEC and first contest against the rival Aggies since 2019 ended up as a rude awakening and a bitter introduction to the quality of opponents in the SEC.
Tuesday's game is the second of a stretch in which the Longhorns play five straight teams ranked in the Top 25.
