England's Sophie Walker lies five shots off the lead heading into the final round of the Ladies European Tour event in Marbella.

American Beth Allen leads the way on nine under par after a birdie on the 18th edged her a shot clear of local favourite Azahara Munoz in the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de Espana Femenino.

Allen carded seven birdies and two bogeys in a third round of 67, with halfway leader Munoz returning a bogey-free 70.

Walker and Italy's Diana Luna finished the day on four under par after rounds of 69 and 71 respectively, with Gwladys Nocera of France and Denmark's Nanna Koerstz Madsen another shot back.
