Along with Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, and Athletic Club, the Blaugrana were given a bye in the first two rounds of the competition, thanks to their participation in the Spanish Super Cup. With the third round of the competition set to be played in over a week, the Catalans will now learn their opponents, with the draw set to take place tomorrow, 9 December."
"The six teams in question are Ourense, Atletico Baleares, Guadalajara, Real Murcia, CF Talavera and Eldense. Barcelona are the most successful team in the history of the Copa del Rey, having won the trophy a record 32 times. The Catalans added to that tally last season, thanks to an extra-time win over arch-rivals Real Madrid, with Jules Kounde scoring the goal."
