If they beat Gent, it will be one of the first classified, Chelsea or Vitoria Guimaraes, in the round of 16. On the Betis side of the draw, Panathinaikos are the other big team, although depending on the draw, Fiorentina could be involved in any possible semi-finals as well.
Betis have struggled in Europe in recent years, prioritizing La Liga for the most part, as evidenced by losses to Legia Warsaw and Mlada Boleslav. However, the path is there to reach the final, especially if they avoid Enzo Maresca’s team.
