City will not qualify for the knockout stages of the competition but can take confidence from their victories over Stranraer and League One outfit Alloa. Their two losses were against Ayr United of the Championship and top-flight Falkirk.

Meanwhile, Spartans are still searching for their first points in Group B after a 4-0 defeat to Dundee United.

Lachlan Rose's brace, Dylan Tait, and Zac Sapsford, proved the difference at Tannadice as Dougie Samuel's men fell to their third consecutive loss.

The Capital outfit will play their final Premier Sports cup fixture on Saturday when they visit Montrose.
