Like the UEFA Champions League and Europa League, the 2025/26 UEFA Conference League tournament will be the second time it is played under the new format introduced last season, where 36 teams qualify for the league phase.

The 2025/26 Conference League campaign will be the fifth time UEFA has organised the tournament, and the current winners are Chelsea, who thrashed La Liga side Real Betis 4-1 in Stadion Miejski. However, the Blues will not participate in the Europa League next season, a promotion given to every Conference League winner, because they finished in a higher place in the Premier League and, as a result, will participate in the Champions League instead.

However, the 2024/25 Conference League final is now behind us, so every concerned eye in this tournament is on the next final, and below are some key details about the 2025/26 Conference League final.
