Jose Mourinho takes his Manchester United side to the Potteries this afternoon as to face an in-form Stoke City side managed by former Old Trafford playing legend Mark Hughes. The Red Devils are unbeaten in their last 16 matches in all competitions but that record will be severely put to the test at a notoriously difficult stadium for all visitors.
 

Last weekend’s 1-1 draw with bitter rivals Liverpool will be loked upon as two points dropped by the Portuguese tactician but his United side are made of stern stuff these days and will still start as favourites today.
