Iker the Octopus has picked Real Madrid to beat Barcelona on Wednesday in the Copa del Rey final.
The 35-pound Pacific Ocean octopus named after Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas correctly predicted a draw in the first of four matches between the teams. Now, he's out to prove his first pick was no fluke.
Iker chose Madrid on Tuesday by snatching a sardine from the tube covered with the team's logo.
Iker floated passively for 15 minutes without selecting a sardine from either team's tube on Friday, a day before Madrid rallied to a 1-1 draw in a Spanish league match.
