Taça de Portugal 3rd Round Draw: Complete Fixtures and Details

Taça de Portugal Third Round Draw Sets 14 Liga Betclic Clubs on the Road

The pairings for the 3.ª eliminatória of the Taça de Portugal were defined, setting up 14 clubs from the Liga Betclic for away fixtures, according to a draw covered by Record.

Scheduled to take place across October 17 and 18, the upcoming elimination round keeps the competition’s European contenders on the sidelines for now. Giants such as FC Porto, Sporting, Benfica, and Sporting de Braga—along with Torreense—do not enter the bracket at this stage, leaving the remaining top-tier sides to face tricky away trips against lower-league opposition.

Top-Flight Sides Hit the Road

Every single team representing the top tier of Portuguese football in this round will play away from home. Among the 27 total fixtures drawn on Wednesday, only two matches pit teams from the 1st and 2nd leagues against each other: Tondela takes on Alverca, while AVS squares off against Moreirense, as detailed by Record.

The draw avoided any direct clashes between Liga Betclic clubs. Meanwhile, the second tier features just one internal matchup, with Académica meeting Amarante for a place in the next phase of the historic national cup competition.
