Player to watch – Antony
Brazilian winger and loanee Antony is aiming to play well enough to secure a permanent move to Real Betis and the wide attacker has been catching the eye in Spain since his temporary switch from Man Utd.
Antony is enjoying his football
Antony scored his third La Liga goal for Real Betis with a nicely-taken volley against Girona on Monday and the 25-year-old has chipped in with five goal contributions in 11 starts in the league overall since moving to Spain. The tricky flanksman has the talent to do more damage against Valladolid.
