Barcelona, Real Madrid and many of their La Liga rivals have discovered their next Copa del Rey opponents.

The draw for the Copa del Rey round three took place today following a dramatic week of action which saw four La Liga clubs eliminated.

Alaves, Getafe, Granada and Levante were all humbled by lower league opposition.

Sixteen La Liga clubs remain, with the four Supercopa clubs joining from this round.
