Betis already knows its rival in the Conference League play-off phase. Manuel Pellegrini’s team will face Belgian Gent, with the first leg away from home on February 13 and the return one a week later, on February 20, at the Benito Villamarín.
It will be the first time that the green and white team faces Gent, since they avoided a clash with Copenhagen, with whom they had already played in the League phase. Currently fifth in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League, Gent is coached by Wouter Vrancken and its player with the highest market value is Mathias Delorge, international under-21 midfielder.
As a curious note, Andri is active in Gent Gudjohnsen, son of the former Barcelona and Chelsea striker. Specifically, Chelsea could be Betis’ rival if Pellegrini’s men advance to the second round, since they will face the Londoners or Vitoria Guimaraes.
