Mourinho\u2019s most frequent opponents in his managerial career to date have been Liverpool (31 games) and Barcelona (27), but he\u2019s also come up against Chelsea on 14 occasions. He had never faced them prior to landing his job at Stamford Bridge off the back of leading Porto to the Champions League title in 2004, and it wouldn’t be until three years after leaving west London that Jose finally met Chelsea in competitive action.<\/p>\n
That was as Inter boss, knocking them out of the Champions League semi-finals in 2010 with home and away victories, en-route to completing a historic treble for the Milan giants. Carlo Ancelotti believes that elimination against a coach ex-Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich had sacked and moved on from was a contributing factor in his own eventual dismissal.<\/p>\n
With Manchester United, Mourinho lost four of seven Chelsea encounters, winning just two. His Spurs side knocked Chelsea out of the Carabao Cup on penalties in September 2020, which technically counts as a draw because the teams weren’t separated until a shootout, and he hasn’t faced the Blues against since leaving the Tottenham job in 2021.<\/p>\n
Overall, it’s a record of four wins, three draws and seven defeats in reunions with Chelsea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
