Jose Mourinho returns to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday evening as Chelsea host Benfica in the Champions League.
The Portuguese coach won three Premier League titles, two League Cups, and the FA Cup across two spells in charge of the Blues, but will relish another chance to face his former employers after the sour end to his second tenure a decade ago.
Benfica are unbeaten, having won twice and drawn once, since Mourinho took charge in September and look to have picked a good time for a trip to West London.
Chelsea have lost three of their last four games, including a 3-1 defeat at Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener and a 3-1 home loss against Brighton on Saturday.
