Didier Deschamps will have a valid opportunity to watch the final of the league conference between Real Betis and Chelsea, this Wednesday evening in Wroclaw, Poland (kick -off 9 p.m., live on Canal+ Foot). If Wesley Fofana is forfeited, the French internationals Malo Gusto and Benoît Badiashile begin the meeting with the Blues.
If Badiashile was announced holder by the British press, since the central defender is satisfied above all with the matches of this conference League this season, Gusto was logically to leave his place of right side to Captain Reece James. His coach Enzo Maresca decided otherwise.
The eleven of Chelsea: Jorgensen – Gusto, Chalobah, Badiashile, Cucurella – Caicedo, Fernandez – Neto, Palmer, Madueke – Jackson.
The former Lyonnais will therefore have an opportunity to shine during a European final while Didier Deschamps has just recalled it in the French team for the Final Four of the League of Nations (semi-final against Spain on Thursday, June 5). Malo Gusto remained on three entries in the league … He only gave two assists in 40 games this season.
Malo Gusto against Cédric Bakambu
Nicolas Jackson, suspended in the last two PL matches, begins at the forefront of the CFC attack, with Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke. An explosive offensive sector that places Chelsea in favorite of this meeting against Betis.
There is also talent on the Andalusian side with Isco and Antony resurrected this season. Two natives of France are in the starting eleven of “the engineer” Manuel Pellegrini: the Senegalese right side Youssouf Sabaly and the Congolese center center Cédric Bakambu. Romain Perraud is a replacement.
The eleven of Real Betis: Adrian – Sabaly, Bartra, Natan, Rodriguez – Fornes, Cardoso – Antony, Isco, Ezzalzouli – Bakambu.
