Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed the goalkeeper who will start in goal for the Blues in the Conference League final against Real Betis.

Chelsea will face Manuel Pellegrini's side at Stadion Miejski in Poland on Wednesday, May 28.

Speaking ahead of the highly anticipated final, Maresca confirmed that Filip Jorgensen will start in goal for Chelsea.

The Italian tactician explained that the former Villarreal goalkeeper has featured in all the matches in the competition, and benching him for the final would be unfair.

"Filip [Jorgensen] is going to play in the Europa Conference League final," Maresca told reporters.

"He’s played every match in the competition, and it would be unfair to remove him now."

"It will be Jorgensen plus ten other Chelsea players; I’m not yet sure who else will start," he stated.
