Chelsea dominated their way to the final of the Conference League, with the only two losses in the tournament not affecting their overall confidence. The Londoners passed through almost all opponents without much difficulty and will come into this match with a clear idea of taking the trophy. However, the busy schedule and the chase for a spot in the Champions League on the domestic scene may also weigh heavily in the overall picture.
Betis showed characterThe Spanish team also reached the final with good performances, although the semi-final clash with Fiorentina put them under serious pressure. Unlike Chelsea, however, they seemed to prefer not to exert as much energy in the league, finishing in fifth place and focusing entirely on the upcoming final. Betis proved themselves to be a tough team, capable of playing against anyone, and we are likely to have an evenly matched final.
Prediction: Both teams to scoreFinals often offer cautious football, but in this case, my expectations are different. Both defenses showed fluctuations during the tournament, and the playing style of both teams suggests that we will see goals exchanged. That's why I'm sticking with the prediction of both teams to score.

During the second part of the season, the team improved their performance and deserved it. They resisted against the leading teams in Spain and for some time now it seems like they mainly think about the final. It is impressive that both teams scored in the last 11 matches of Betis from all tournaments. We will see if the experienced Manuel Pellegrini, who has also coached in the Premier League, will be able to find the recipe to beat Chelsea.
Chelsea easily reached the finalChelsea has been considered a favorite in the tournament from the very beginning. However, their path to the final did not offer any serious challenges and undoubtedly Betis will be the most serious one. The team fought until the last minute for a place in the Champions League in the championship, which they still achieved on Sunday with a 1-0 away win over Nottingham. Now they have the opportunity to become the first team to win all current UEFA tournaments. Chelsea will try to break a negative trend for English teams, who have lost the last nine finals against Spanish opponents in European tournaments.
Prediction: +1.5 AH for Betis, both teams to scoreBetis is a team that can make it difficult for the favorite Chelsea. They had more time for preparation and rest before the final. They may even score a goal, and we have consistently seen goals in both nets in Betis' recent matches. Finals are generally different clashes, but I think this will also be the case now.

The Spaniards are a tricky opponent
Betis had a very strong second half of the season, qualifying for the Europa League and even coming close to a place in the Champions League. Now they will want to finish everything with a trophy. Chelsea, on the other hand, secured a place in the Champions League in a season filled with inconsistency. The "Blues" finished the campaign in a better way, but there are doubts about the ability of Enzo Maresca and company to deceive Betis and Manuel Pellegrini. We know how tricky Spanish teams are in Europe, and with players like Isco, Antony, and Lo Celso in good form, the English team may have a lot of problems.
Bet on +1.5 AH. Home handicap and under 3.5 goals
Personally, I think Betis can grab the trophy at the end of the evening.
