MADRID, Aug. 31 -- The third round of matches in the Liga Santander sees just two sides with 100 percent records at the start of the campaign while two teams have yet to get off the mark. Here are some things to look out for on a weekend packed with derbies in Spain.
1, Barca and Madrid to continue winning start
Just two weeks into the season and Spain's two most powerful clubs are the only two teams in the competition to have a 100 percent record and on paper at least, it looks as if that record should continue until after the international break.
Real Madrid play at home to Leganes and despite last season's Cup exit to their local rivals, they look to be too powerful for the side from the south of the capital.
Meanwhile FC Barcelona entertain newly promoted Huesca. Huesca have been very well organized so far and won their first game of the season away to Eibar, before coming back from 2-0 down to snatch a dramatic point in Bilbao last weekend, but it is a huge task for them to get anything from Messi, Suarez, Coutinho and company.
2, The heat is on in the Seville derby
There is probably no tenser derby in Spain that the Seville derby between Betis and Sevilla and even though the faces change year after year, the game maintains its character.
The first derby in Betis' Benito Villamarin Stadium, will be played with temperatures approaching 30 degrees centigrade and the heat will be on in every sense of the word.
