Yup, we never lost at Stamford Bridge in EPL games since Jose came here.

I don't think Jose will lineup our 2nd strings. He rarely done that even in less prestigous Carling Cup. He's always want to win. Play a 2nd strings against United just like digging our own grave. But, I am not sure if Sir Alex want to rest some of their regulars as they have nothing to lose but I am sure he wants to win that game too.
Thanx for the confirmation

If not mistaken, the most recent "lost" was against Charlton in one of the cup games, lost through penalty?
On paper, both managers will want to win this game:
Jose - defending his unbeaten home record
SAF - dont think he will want his team to lose there as newly crowned champ
But the FA Cup Final will be a factor in the team selections for SAF I guess.....
