The Blues will play Real Betis for Uefa’s third tier club tournament with the Spanish side having reached the summit after significant contributions from Premier League oldboy Antony.
The Conference League is not a title that would rank among the highlights of Chelsea’s history but fans are still hopeful the season can at least end in victory. Blues' fans watched on as their London rivals Tottenham took home the Europa League after beating Manchester United on Wednesday.
Maresca’s Chelsea enter the final Premier League match week of the season in fifth place, locked on 66 points with Newcastle and Aston Villa and two behind Manchester City.
The top five will qualify for next season’s Champions League with sixth going into the Europa League and seventh qualifying for the Uefa Conference League.
Nottingham Forest are on 65 points meaning that three of five sides will make it to the premier competition. Chelsea could, however, be guaranteed at least Europa League status if they are able to win this season’s Conference League.
Here is what you need to look out for.

Chelsea team news
Christopher Nkunku and Marc Guiu are both injury doubts for the final.
Maresca has said that the only player he has named in his mind is Filip Jorgensen, the usual reserve goalkeeper who has started every game in the tournament this season to date.
The Italian coach said: "This game will be Filip plus 10 players, I do not know which the other 10 will be, but Filip is going to play because he deserves to play.”
