ENZO Maresca is a man with a point to prove as he targets football history for Chelsea in Wednesday's Uefa Conference League final against Real Betis.

Maresca aims to make history at Blues

Victory in the final round of their English Premier League match at Nottingham Forest on Sunday secured qualification for next season's Uefa Champions League. Now Maresca's thoughts turn to Wroclaw and the chance for Chelsea to become the first team to win all five of Uefa's major men's club competitions.

The Blues have twice won the Champions League, Europa League, Super Cup and the defunct Cup Winners' Cup and can now complete the set if they overcome Betis in the final of Europe's newest competition in Poland.

Maresca has had a rollercoaster first season in charge at Stamford Bridge after replacing Mauricio Pochettino. His team were within touching distance of eventual Premier League champions Liverpool in mid-December before stumbling badly, but results picked up again towards the end of the campaign.

Maresca, clearly frustrated, rounded on his critics after his youthful side secured fourth spot in the Premier League on Sunday with a 1-0 win at the City Ground.
