Chelsea vs. Betis: When and where will the Conference League final take place?

The road to the UEFAConference League final has come to an end. After 152 matches and months of intense action, the third-tier continental competition has its two finalists: Real Betis Balompié and Chelsea FC. What began back in September with 36 group stage teams—plus many more in the summer qualifying rounds—has now narrowed down to one final showdown for European silverware.

This marks the fourth edition of the Conference League, a tournament previously won by Roma (2022), West Ham United (2023), and Olympiacos (2024). Now, either Betis or Chelsea will etch their name into the history books.

When Is the 2025 Conference League Final?

The final is scheduled for Wednesday, May 28, 2025, with kickoff set for 3:00 PM local time. Real Betis will be designated as the home team, while Chelsea will serve as the visitors.

Where Is It Being Played?

The match will take place at the Stadion Wrocław in Wrocław, Poland. Home to Śląsk Wrocław, the stadium holds over 40,000 spectators and is the third-largest venue in the country. It also hosted three matches during UEFA Euro 2012, which was co-hosted by Poland and Ukraine and ultimately won by Spain.

European Pedigree: Chelsea and Betis in the Conference League

Chelsea are playing in the Conference League for the very first time. Though no strangers to European glory—they’ve won the UEFA Champions League (2012, 2021) and Europa League (2013, 2019)—this season marked their debut in Europe’s third-tier competition. They’ve now reached the final in their maiden campaign, aiming to add yet another trophy to their impressive continental cabinet.

Real Betis, meanwhile, have more recent familiarity with the tournament. The Spanish club competed in the Conference League last season (2023–24), but were eliminated in the Round of 16 by Fiorentina. Before that, Betis had made consistent appearances in the Europa League but had never progressed to a European final—until now. This will be their first ever appearance in a UEFA competition final.

What’s at Stake?

The winner will be crowned 2024–25 UEFA Europa Conference League champion—and will also gain automatic qualification to the UEFA Europa League group stage for the 2025–26 season. For both clubs, it’s a chance to cap off their season with international silverware and momentum heading into next year.
