REAL BETIS have jokingly changed their badge for tomorrow’s Conference League final against Chelsea.
The Spanish club are looking to defy the odds by winning their first-ever European trophy.
Betis are certainly up against it with Chelsea, who started the season as heavy favourites.
Enzo Maresca’s £1billion squad have only lost once throughout the entire campaign.
And many are expecting the Blues to finish the job in Warsaw on Wednesday evening.
However, Betis are hoping that a change to their club badge could prove to be a lucky omen.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side jokingly revealed that they had replaced the middle of their crest with a BIRD for the one-off match.
They said: “Presenting our badge for the Conference League final.”
Adding a photo of Antony, who has starred on loan from Manchester United, Betis added: “Year of the Birds. Year of the GOAT.”
But the image is not actually going to appear on Betis’ kit.

And fans were quick to react to the banter online.
One said: “That’s crazy.”
Another declared: “Let’s go bird for bird.”
One noted: “Might support Chelsea with this nonsense.”
Another added: “Sensational.”
