David Moyes has expressed an ambition to lead Real Sociedad into the final of the Copa del Rey this season.

Moyes's side host Villarreal at Anoeta on Wednesday knowing that they must overturn a 1-0 deficit from the first leg in order to progress into the quarter-finals.

With Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona on the opposite side of the draw, the Scot feels that a final berth is realistic, but says that avoiding relegation is his primary goal.

Moyes, whose side sit three points above La Liga's relegation zone in 12th, told reporters: "If possible I'd love to get to a final for the supporters and if we get to the cup final it will be fantastic.

"I think we should be realistic but our hopes, our dreams are that we can get to the final. When I took the job there was a risk of relegation and there's still a risk of relegation."

Holders Real are on the brink of elimination as Carlo Ancelotti's side trail 2-0 to Atletico Madrid ahead of the return leg at the Bernabeu this week.
