Football: Five More Copa Del Rey Matches With Upsets A Possibility
La Liga: The third round of the Copa del Rey in Spain continues with five matches on Sunday with the chance of some upsets as lower league sides play at home to top-flight rivals. Ourense from the third tier are at home to Valladolid, with the bottom side of La Liga probably more interested in ensuring top-flight survival than a cup run, which could leave it with tired legs for the battle to avoid relegation.
Real Sociedad travel to play Ponferradina, who also play in the RFEF I division, where they currently sit a place below Real Sociedad's B-team in the classification. While the side from San Sebastian has to be the clear favourite, this is another match where the top-flight side needs to be careful.
Elche entertain Las Palmas in a relatively even-matched affair, with Elche fourth in the Spanish second division and pushing for promotion. Las Palmas have improved a lot since the arrival of Diego Martinez as coach, but this is one of the most even ties in the round.
