Jose Mourinho hoping Manchester United kick off 'amazing' few weeks with win over Chelsea as he turns in for night at Lowry Hotel on eve of clash

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will attempt to kick off an 'amazing' few weeks in style when former club Chelsea arrive at Old Trafford this weekend.

As if facing the club he led to three Premier League crowns across two spells was not enough, the Portuguese's public spat with current Blues manager Antonio Conte has only heightened interest in Sunday's Premier League encounter.

It is the first of five matches at Old Trafford between now and the end of March - a run of home games that includes Liverpool in the league, Sevilla in the Champions League last-16 and Brighton in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
