Man Utd boss Jose Mourinho has only lost NINE league home games in his career

Jose Mourinho will be looking to turn Old Trafford back into the fortress it once was when he takes charge of his first competitive home game as Manchester United boss on Friday night.

Seven teams left United's home with at least a point last season, with their first opponents this term, Southampton, earning a 1-0 victory in January.

Defeats at home are something Mourinho is not used to and does not tolerate. In fact, he has suffered just nine of them during his entire managerial career.
