(Sports Network) - The Orlando Magic will open a two-game road trip tonight, when they pay a visit to the Chicago Bulls at the United Center.

Orlando will also visit the Atlanta Hawks, and is 25-14 away from Amway Arena this season.

The Magic, who are the third seed in the Eastern Conference, have alternated wins and losses over their previous seven contests. In Friday's 102-101 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves at home, Hedu Turkoglu had 23 points and seven assists for Orlando, which was denied its 50th win of the campaign. Dwight Howard ended with 20 points and 14 boards, while Maurice Evans added 17 points in a losing cause.

Howard tied an Orlando record for most double-doubles in a season as he notched No. 68. That pulls him even with Shaquille O'Neal for the record, which was set during the 1992-93 season.

Orlando last won 50 games during the 1995-96 campaign, when they went 60-22 and lost in the Eastern Conference Finals to Michael Jordan and the Bulls.

Meanwhile, Chicago will wrap up a two-game homestand on Sunday, and owns a 19-20 record in the Windy City this season. The Bulls ended a three-game slide in the opener of the homestand on Friday, as Tyrus Thomas recorded 20 points, 14 rebounds and three blocks in a 100-95 victory over the playoff-bound Cleveland Cavaliers.

Luol Deng dropped a team-high 21 points and Joakim Noah added 17 points and 11 rebounds for Chicago, which was eliminated from playoff contention on Tuesday. Ben Gordon finished with 16 points in a losing effort.

Orlando and Chicago are playing the fourth and final matchup of the season this evening. The Magic have won the first three meetings in 2007-08, and have won five of six and six of the last eight encounters.

Orlando has won three straight after losing its last three at the United Center.
