Pavol Safranko's opener was his 10th goal of the season

Championship side Dundee United eased into the fifth round of the Scottish Cup after brushing aside League One hosts Montrose at Links Park.

Pavol Safranko gave the visitors an early lead, bundling in at the second attempt after Aidan Nesbitt's cross.

And Callum Booth put Robbie Neilson's side in command with a composed finished before the break.

The two-time winners added late efforts through Billy King and Ian Harkes to confirm their place in the last 16.
