What is the team news?
Mourinho could ring the changes after the lacklustre defeat to Everton on Sunday.
Giovani Lo Celso is a major doubt with a thigh issue, while Japhet Tanganga remains on the sidelines.
With a trip to Southampton just three days after this match, the Special One could rest Harry Kane and Son Heung-min for this one.
