The Europa Conference League is still only a baby after its inaugural edition in 2021-22.
Three teams have so far won the competition, those being Roma, West Ham United and most recently Olympiacos.
Later this year, a new team will be crowned Conference League champions, as the aforementioned trio are not part of the quarter-final stage.
The team to stop is Premier League side Chelsea, who breezed through the League Phase with six wins from six and 26 goals scored, as well as only five conceded.
A tricky last-16 tie against Denmark’s FC Copenhagen saw them emerge with a 3-1 aggregate win.
Can anyone stop the Blues? Well, let’s take a look at the outright odds on betFIRST, as well as some more online betting tips to help you bet on football.

Europa Conference League Betting Tips
Chelsea’s odds are verging on ridiculous, given we are only at the quarter-final stage.
But on paper, the Blues’ squad is by far the strongest left in the competition – and perhaps the strongest this young competition has seen.
So, can they be stopped? Well, it is intriguing to note that the Premier League side could meet either Real Betis or Fiorentina in the final.
The two historic European clubs are on the opposite side of the draw and it would be a surprise if both of them failed to make it to the last round.
In a one-off match, Betis and Fiorentina each have the quality to beat a Chelsea side still going through a transitional period under the tutelage of Enzo Maresca.
The Spanish team look to be the best outside bet, given their recent form in all competitions.
Seville-based outfit Betis, who now boast ex-Manchester United winger Antony in their ranks, have won their last five La Liga matches, including a 2-1 victory over Real Madrid.
Betis also beat Vitoria 4-0 away from home in the second leg of their last-16 tie, with Isco and Cedric Bakambu both on the scoresheet.
So if you want to avoid Chelsea’s incredibly short odds, Betis at 5.50 would be our recommendation!
