After narrowly beating Leicester on Saturday, Chelsea have already turned their attentions to Tuesday's Champions League clash with Qarabag.

Chelsea's fixture with the Azerbaijani outfit at Stamford Bridge during the week marks their return to Europe's elite competition after they missed out last season.

And Blues striker Alvaro Morata and team-mate Marcos Alonso are clearly looking forward to the Champions League clash as they enjoyed a recovery session on Sunday.

Antonio Conte's side are currently recovering following their tough match against Leicester on Saturday afternoon in the Premier League. 

Chelsea overcame the Foxes 2-1 at the King Power Stadium, thanks to goals from Morata and former Leicester midfielder N'Golo Kante.

Following the match, Morata told the club's website: 'It was a very important win.

'Against teams like Leicester it’s always very difficult and we suffered in the last minutes having been 2-0 up, but that’s the Premier League.

‘I’m feeling good but we are not in first place, which is the most important thing, so we must keep working.’

Chelsea currently sit third in the league with nine points out of their opening four matches.
