Can Mourinho Win his First Ever Game at St. James’ Park?

Action will go down live at St. James’ Park, on Sunday, 11^th of February, 2017, with Islam Slimani hoping to make his Newcastle debut.

However, the question that will be in the heart of many sport fans is if the Algerian and Leicester striker, Slimani, who is on loan at Newcastle, can actually help Rafael Benítez put an old enemy and rival, José Mourinho, in his right place?

Would Slimani be capable of scoring the required goals needed to ensure that Benitez’s team avoid the relegation pit?

Can Mourinho win his first ever Premier League game at St James’ Park? Can Mo Diamé continue that impressive run of his in central midfield for the Tynesiders?

How time flies and things change with time! Two decades ago Newcastle and Manchester United were vying for the Premier League title?

For Man United, It’s been an emotional week off the pitch for the club, who commemorated the 60th anniversary of the Munich Air Disaster on Tuesday, but Jose and his boys will now switch focus to matters on the field.

The Reds will be confident of securing another three points against the lowly Magpies, who are embroiled in the intriguing battle to avoid relegation.
