(WAND) -- Illinois men's basketball is looking to avoid a three game losing streak as they welcome Northwestern to the State Farm Center Sunday Jan. 26. 

The last time the Fighting Illini and the Wildcats met was back in December up in Evanston where Northwestern came away with the 70-66 overtime win. 

Along with hoping to not get their third straight loss Illinois is also hoping to break a losing streak to Northwestern. The Illini's last win against Northwestern was January 2, 2024 in Champaign. 

Illinois again will be without their 7'1" Center Tomislav Ivisic who Brad Underwood said Saturday has mono and has no time table to return.
