Real Betis will make their debut in a European final when they face Chelsea in Wednesday's Conference League showpiece in Wroclaw, where Antony will endeavour to continue a remarkable renaissance.
The Manchester United loanee has been an unexpected success story under Manuel Pellegrini, having a direct hand in 14 goals in 25 matches for the club since his arrival in January, nine of his own and five assists.
Antony scored in both legs of Betis' semi-final win over Fiorentina, as well as setting up Abde Ezzalzouli's extra-time equaliser in the 2-2 second-leg draw, which sealed a 4-3 aggregate victory.
The Brazilian is expected to join forces with ex-West Ham United man Pablo Fornals and the rejuvenated Isco behind Cedric Bakambu, who is the second-highest scorer in this season's Conference League with seven goals.
Giovani Lo Celso's participation is uncertain due to a muscle injury, but Johnny Cardoso is back in training after a knock and should be given the green light to start in midfield, potentially alongside Sergi Altimira.
Ex-Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin is out for the season with a hamstring injury, so Youssouf Sabaly should edge out Aitor Ruibal for a start on the right-hand side of defence.
The experienced Ricardo Rodriguez is expected to occupy the left flank, while Natan and Marc Bartra protect cup goalkeeper Fran Vieites.
Real Betis possible starting lineup:
Vieites; Sabaly, Bartra, Natan, R. Rodriguez; Cardoso, Altimira; Antony, Isco, Fornals; Bakambu
