Betis take on the visitors Chelsea in the final match of UEFA Conference League. The match will be played on Wednesday, May 28th at Tarczynski Arena (Wrocław).
Betis have been playing under Manuel Pellegrini for quite some time now. The Chilean has brought stability and success, turning Betis into a regular participant in European competitions and even delivering a Copa del Rey title. What he hasn’t achieved, however, is taking the Seville side into the Champions League — and this season was a missed opportunity, especially with Spain earning a fifth UCL berth. They ended up losing the race to Villarreal, a team they had outpaced last year to finish seventh. Still, their performances overall have shown progress, and they fought valiantly in the Europa Conference League. Most of their struggles came in the autumn and later in the semifinal, where Fiorentina avenged their 1-2 home defeat with a dramatic extra-time winner in Spain. Now they face an even tougher opponent in the final.

Chelsea can finally focus entirely on this competition. The Blues set a clear goal this season — to return to the Champions League, which meant their priority was the Premier League. Despite UEFA's expansion of qualification to five clubs, the top-four race remained razor-close until the final round. As a result, manager Enzo Maresca consistently used the Conference League as a platform for fringe players, from high-priced outcasts like Mudryk to promising academy products. Even with a rotated squad, Chelsea looked dominant throughout the competition. Apart from a few early scares — like their opening draw with Servette — they cruised past most opponents, including a revenge win over Legia after losing the first encounter in Warsaw. With no domestic obligations left, the big question is whether Enzo will go full-strength now, unleashing Cole Palmer and the main squad.
These two sides have met only once before — in the 2005 Champions League group stage — and each club won its respective home fixture. Despite Betis' tactical discipline and resilience, Chelsea simply operate on a higher level. Expect the Blues to lift the Conference League trophy with a win in this final.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win.
