Chelsea have one foot in the final of the 2024-25 Europa Conference League; but who will they play?

Chelsea vs Djurgarden – Best Bets
Jadon Sancho AND Tyrique George both to score anytime @ 5.90
Maresca will almost certainly make wholesale changes to his XI, with progression to the final all but secured and a tough match away at fellow Champions League hopefuls Newcastle coming up on Sunday. Sancho and George are two players likely to come into the team in place of first-choice wingers Pedro Neto and Noni Madueke. And we are backing the English pair to each get on the scoresheet at Stamford Bridge. Sancho opened the scoring in the first leg of this tie, while George has already rippled the back of the net in the Conference League this season.
Djurgarden to score over 0.5 goals @ 2.02
Given the fact Chelsea should field a second-string team in order to prepare for the trip to St James’ Park, a goal for Djurgarden cannot be ruled out. The Swedish side mustered 16 shots on goal in the first leg, with five of them hitting the target. And they also scored late on through Isak Alemayehu, so this selection could be an easy(ish) way to double your money. Djurgarden have scored at least once in four of their last five matches across all competitions and Chelsea’s previous away match in the Conference League saw them lose 2-1 to Legia Warsaw.
Fiorentina vs Real Betis – Best Bets
Player to score or assist – Isco @ 2.60
Isco is always a major threat in the final third for Betis, evidenced by a return of 11 goals and eight assists in all competitions this season. The Spaniard scored in the recent 5-1 victory over Valladolid and then came on as a substitute to deliver an assist in the 2-1 win away at Espanyol on the weekend. As such, Isco is a prime candidate to strike a decisive blow for Betis on Thursday night.
Real Betis to win either the first half or the match @ 2.33
While Fiorentina are the pre-match favourites, there appears to be a lot of value in backing Betis to enjoy their trip to Italy. The Seville-based side are on a four-match winning streak and are scoring goals for fun, 12 in that quartet of games to be precise. With that in mind, we are predicting them to win either the first half or the match as a whole, as this selection removes the risk of a potential Fiorentina second-half comeback.
