MORE — What do Chelsea need to do next to win big trophies again?
Real Betis, managed by Manuel Pellegrini, have had a fine season in Spain as the Andalusians continue their resurgence and have been incredible consistent as they've finished in the top seven of La Liga in each of the last five seasons. They finished sixth in La Liga this season which is good enough for a Europa League group stage spot for next season, and Betis are chasing a first-ever European trophy in their history.

Chelsea will be full of confidence as Enzo Maresca's side won 1-0 at Nottingham Forest on Sunday to qualify for the UEFA Champions League for next season. That was their main aim for this season and Maresca's young, and large, squad has been rotated well as they've dominated the Conference League. Chelsea know if they win this trophy they will be the first team to win all of the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League trophies.

Real Betis team news, focus
Antony has been superb since he arrived from Manchester United on loan in January, while playmaking trio Isco, Pablo Fornals and Giovani Lo Celso have regained their form and are key to Pellegrini's free-flowing style. Betis are a very fun team to watch and USMNT holding midfielder Johnny Cardoso is influential and so important in providing balance but he's struggling with an injury.

OUT: Hector Bellerin (hamstring), Marc Roca (foot), Diego Llorente (muscle) | QUESTIONABLE: Johnny Cardoso (unknown), Fran Vietes (calf), Giovani Lo Celso (muscle), Youssouf Sabaly (shoulder), Chimy Avila (hamstring)
Chelsea team news, focus
Nicolas Jackson will lead the line and he will be fresh after his recent suspension in the Premier League after picking up a red card at Newcastle. Other forward options are struggling for fitness with Christopher Nkunku and Marc Guiu doubts, so youngster Tyrique George could get some minutes. We can expect a bit of rotation from Maresca but not much as Chelsea would love to cap off a big step forward this season with a trophy. We should see the likes of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Benoit Badiashille, Malo Gusto and Trevoh Chalboah start in this game. Romeo Lavia is ineligible as he was not named in Chelsea's Conference League squad.
OUT: Aaron Anselmino (thigh), Wesley Fofana (thigh - out for season), Mykhailo Mudryk (suspension), Omari Kellyman (hamstring) | QUESTIONABLE: Christopher Nkunku (unknown), Marc Guiu (unknown)
Real Betis vs Chelsea prediction
This seems like it will be very tight and could go to extra time and penalties. Chelsea's extra bit of quality will probably show, in the end. Real Betis 1-2 Chelsea.

Real Madrid Will Pull Off This Genius Free Transfer
Real Madrid is set to pull off what could prove to be a genius free transfer according to Mundo ... More Deportivo, which cited anonymous sources. Real Madrid is set to pull off what could prove to be a genius free transfer according to Mundo Deportivo, which cited anonymous sources. President Florentino Perez has acted swiftly following a trophyless season in terms of major silverware, as bitter rival FC Barcelona swept a domestic treble in Spain. His first port of call was replacing head coach Carlo Ancelotti, who now oversees the Brazil national team, and replacing him with one of the game's most hyped young managers in Xabi Alonso. On the weekend that the 2024/2025 La Liga campaign drew to a close, Madrid then announced that it had activated Spain international Dean Huijsen's £50 million release clause at Bournemouth. This was Madrid's first piece of business in the transfer market, which was quickly followed by paying €10 million to get Trent Alexander-Arnold out of an expiring Liverpool contract earlier than June 30 so that he can play the World Club Cup in the United States. The newly-reimagined FIFA tournament with huge prize money on offer is one that Argentine wonderkid Franco Mastantuono is expected to play for his boyhood club River Plate. After the competition, however, he should then cross the Atlantic and complete his transfer to Real Madrid after Los Blancos came out of nowhere and renewed interest in the whiz kid at a time when Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City appeared to be the frontrunners for his capture. To cap off a week where a delegation travelled Madrid looks set to pay the youngster's $51.5 million (€45 million) release clause after reaching an agreement with both the player and his current employer. Aged just 17, Mastantuono is a punt for the future alongside Endrick and Arda Guler. But Perez isn't done there in playing the long game, and while those mentioned three transfers around $170 million ($€147 million to be exact in euros), Perez is looking even further into the future and could have pulled off a major coup. This is because according to Mundo Deportivo, Ajax's Abdellah Ouazane will join Real Madrid's Castilla reserve team in July. Aged 16, he will do so at zero cost because the prodigy of Moroccan descent did not agree fresh terms with the Dutch club in what could prove to be another transfer market masterstroke.
