When United play against the other top teams away from home Jose Mourinho will always take a point
BBC Sport pundit Mark Lawrenson on Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho
Predicting a 1-1 draw, Lawrenson told BBC Sport: "Chelsea's 3-0 defeat in the Champions League game at Roma was un-Chelsea-like under Antonio Conte.
"Last year we thought they couldn't keep winning, regardless of how they were playing, but they did.
"This year you're waiting for them to throw a wobbler every three or four games.
"After losing in Rome, Conte said his players are lacking hunger which you can't imagine he would tolerate. It is strange.
