But in the end, there is only one Championship side in the quarter-finals of the Scottish League Cup.

After their fine win away to top-flight Dundee yesterday, Ayr were handed a big pay day but a an even more difficult tie away to Rangers.

Hibs' reward for beating County is perhaps the tie of the round at home to Aberdeen.

Holders Celtic take on St Johnstone, while Hearts host Motherwell.
