3. Mourinho’s revenge
Last season Sunderland dealt a huge blow to Chelsea’s title hopes with a 1-0 victory late in the campaign. The defeat was Jose Mourinho’s first in 78 league games with the Blues as the Black Cats started their remarkable survival bid.
The result would have undoubtedly hurt and it’s a sure thing that Mourinho won’t have forgot about it either. With the Blues in such rampant form, and Sunderland consistently inconsistent, the Special One may order his troops to run riot on Gus Poyet’s men.
