Tondela and Alverca

Tondela, relegated to the II Liga last season, beat Alverca 2-0 after extra time on Sunday, 18 October, at the João Cardoso Stadium. The 90 minutes ended goalless, and Alverca's best early chance was a Dawda Camara header that struck the crossbar in the 16th minute. In extra time Vivaldo Semedo had a close-range chance for Alverca, but Carlão held the ball by his left post. Carraça, who had come off the bench, put Tondela ahead in the 98th minute with a first-time strike after a throw-in bounced loose at the edge of the area. RTP credits Rodrigo Cascavel with the second goal in the 105th minute from a pass by Hélder Tavares, while a SAPO report names Tiago Dias at 105+1 from a cross by the same player. Alverca had also been knocked out in the third round last season, according to RTP.

Mafra and Santa Clara

Mafra, of the Liga 3, came from behind to beat Santa Clara 3-2 after extra time at the Estádio Municipal de Mafra. Djé Tavares gave the Azorean side a 1-0 lead in the 7th minute, and Rodrigo Matos levelled in the 35th. Fernando put Santa Clara 2-1 ahead in the 61st minute, but Rodrigo Matos struck again in the 90+2 minute to force extra time. Mamor Niang scored the winner in the 101st minute. Djé Tavares and Lénio Neves were both sent off after second yellow cards, in the 45+2 minute and the 105th minute respectively. Mafra, which reached the semi-finals in 2021/22, advances to the fourth round under coach Tim Sparv, while the defeat was Santa Clara's first of the season under Petit.

Fátima and Académico de Viseu

Fátima, of the Campeonato de Portugal, the fourth national tier, beat Académico de Viseu 1-0 at the Estádio Municipal Papa Francisco. Académico, a Liga Portugal Betclic side, had won four consecutive I Liga matches before the cup tie. Coach Bruno Pinheiro fielded a line-up with many changes from his usual starting eleven, giving minutes to less-used players. The game was goalless at half-time, and the only goal came from 21-year-old Lucas Russo in the 83rd minute, when he arrived in the heart of the box. The defeat ends Académico's Taça run at the hands of a lower-tier side.
