Betfred Cup draw: Hibs handed Dundee repeat as Hearts face Alloa trip

Hibs and Dundee will meet again in the last 16 of the Betfred Cup after the Group B winners and runners-up were drawn against each other less than an hour after they had met at Easter Road.

The draw for the last 16 of the Betfred Cup has been made

The Capital club needed a win to finish top of their group and avoid a knock-out tie against Aberdeen, Celtic, Hearts, or Rangers and they duly did so with a 4-1 victory against the Dens Park side courtesy of goals from Stevie Mallan, Jamie Gullan, Melker Hallberg, and a Jordan McGhee own goal, with Christie Elliott on target for the visitors.

The two teams will do battle once again for a place in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.

Hearts, meanwhile, face a trip to the Indodrill Stadium after being drawn away to league rivals Alloa Athletic after finishing top of Group A with four wins from four.

In the other ties, Celtic have been handed a home tie against Ross County while Rangers were drawn to face League One Falkirk.

Aberdeen travel to Paisley to face St Mirren while Livingston host Ayr United. There was one other all-Championship clash with Arbroath being drawn at home against Dunfermline Athletic while Motherwell and St Johnstone meet at Fir Park in the third all-Premiership affair.

Ties will be played on the weekend of November 28 and 29.
