Real Betis is facing a historic opportunity this Wednesday, May 28, 2025, when they take on Chelsea in the UEFA Conference League Final in Wrocław, Poland. It's not just a chance to lift their first-ever European trophy, but also a chance to end a drought of over three years without silverware.

The Last Title: Copa del Rey 2022

The last time Real Betis lifted a trophy was on April 23, 2022, when they won the Copa del Rey in a dramatic final against Valencia CF. After a 1-1 draw in regular time, the match was decided by a penalty shootout, with Betis winning 5-4.

Borja Iglesias opened the scoring for Betis, while Hugo Duro equalized for Valencia. The hero of the night was academy product Juan Miranda, who scored the decisive penalty to clinch the club’s third Copa del Rey, adding to the ones they had previously won in 1977 and 2005.

The club also won LaLiga once, back in 1935.

Looking for a First International Trophy

Despite a long history in Spanish football, Real Betis has never won an official international title. This match against Chelsea marks the first European final in the club’s history. Over the years, Betis have made appearances in the Europa League and other continental competitions but never reached a final—until now.

A victory would not only bring glory but also cement Manuel Pellegrini’s era as one of the most successful in club history.

Does the Winner Qualify for Another Tournament?

Normally, the winner of the Conference League secures a place in the UEFA Europa League for the following season. However, since Betis have already qualified for the 2025-26 Europa League through LaLiga, that automatic berth will not be reassigned.
