Chelsea, one of England’s most storied clubs, is on the brink of becoming the first team to complete the full sweep of UEFA club trophies.
Standing in their way? A passionate and inspired Real Betis side guided by the seasoned Manuel Pellegrini, chasing their first-ever European title.
Chelsea’s Golden Chance to Etch Their Name in History
After sealing fourth place in the Premier League with a clutch 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest, the Blues have already secured Champions League football next season.
But that hasn’t dimmed their hunger for silverware.
Under the stewardship of Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have found rhythm in a season many deemed transitional.
The London side brushed aside Djurgardens in the semi-finals with ease, underscoring their dominance in the Conference League.
This final presents more than just a trophy—it’s a shot at European immortality.
With Champions League, Europa League, and UEFA Super Cup victories already in their vault, the Conference League is the missing piece in Chelsea’s collection.
Betis: The Spanish Underdogs with a Veteran’s Grit
Real Betis have emerged as the tournament’s romantic story.
Rejuvenated under former Premier League-winning manager Manuel Pellegrini, they’ve mixed flair with resolve.
The semi-final against Fiorentina was a testament to their spirit—Antony’s late heroics and a dramatic last-minute assist to Abde Ezzalzouli secured a 4-3 aggregate win in the most pulsating fashion.
Despite finishing sixth in La Liga and hitting a rocky patch in their final games, Betis arrive in Poland with belief.
For them, this isn’t just a final—it’s a symbol of resurgence, unity, and the chance to write their name among Europe’s elite.
Team News and Tactical Insights
Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson, who missed the Premier League finale due to suspension, returns up front.
Injuries persist—Christopher Nkunku remains doubtful, and Maresca is also without Aaron Anselmino, Wesley Fofana, Omari Kellyman, and Mykhaylo Mudryk.
But depth remains a strong suit, with fresh legs like Trevoh Chalobah and Filip Jorgensen expected to feature.
Betis face a tougher challenge squad-wise.
Hector Bellerin, Marc Roca, Diego Llorente, and Chimy Avila are ruled out. Giovani Lo Celso is a fitness concern.
Cedric Bakambu, their top scorer in the competition, will spearhead the attack, supported by a revitalized Isco and the ever-creative Antony.
Predicted Starting XIs:
Real Betis: Vieites; Sabaly, Bartra, Natan, R. Rodriguez; Cardoso, Altimira; Antony, Isco, Fornals; Bakambu
Chelsea: Jorgensen; Gusto, Chalobah, Badiashile, Cucurella; Dewsbury-Hall, Fernandez; Sancho, Nkunku, George; Jackson
Prediction: A European Classic in the Making
Expect fireworks. Both sides boast attacking flair, and with Betis scoring in 11 consecutive matches, a clean sheet seems unlikely.
However, Chelsea’s bench depth could prove decisive. If the game stretches into extra time, the Blues’ substitutes might tip the balance.
Final Score Prediction: Real Betis 2–3 Chelsea (After Extra Time)
