This is a game of returns: for José Mourinho to Stamford Bridge, and Steve Bruce and Hull to the Premier League. The visitors have never won in this corner of south-west London and, even bolstered by summer reinforcements, will arrive braced for an instant reminder of the gulf between the top two divisions. Chelsea have quietly added to their options, but Mourinho is the main attraction. He did not lose a home league game first time round. That sequence is likely to be prolonged. Dominic Fifield
