Eden Hazard, Nathaniel Chalobah and Thibaut Courtois were on one team, against Willian, David Luiz and Victor Moses on the other.

The aim of the game is to keep the ball in the air, with each player having three touches, descending to one.

When each player has completed their touches, they have to strike the ball at goal, with the first team to score being the winner.

And despite having the goalkeeper on their team, it was Hazard's side who got the job done.

Meanwhile Liverpool, who also have no European football to worry about, took part in their own version of the challenge.

Philippe Coutinho, Daniel Sturridge and Emre Can were the players who stepped up to the plate.

Chelsea face a key London derby at home to Tottenham this weekend as they look to cement their place at the top of the table, while Liverpool play at home to Sunderland.

When the two sides met earlier in the season, Jurgen Klopp's Reds ran out 2-1 winners at Stamford Bridge.
