United head into the game on a 15-game unbeaten run and recorded a ninth successive win in all competitions against Hull City in the first leg of the League Cup semi-final on Tuesday.
They are sixth in the league on 39 points, trailing second-placed Liverpool by five points.
"I think with Mourinho going there, he's going to be a great manager," Rush told Sporting News.
"When you've got a great manager like Mourinho, he'll bring out the best of the players ... That's something we should all be worried about, when you've got a manager like Mourinho who knows exactly what to do."
