Simon Donnelly and Alex Rae joined Connie McLaughlin live on BBC Sportscene to conduct the draw, with some intriguing fixtures in store in the next round of the competition.

Former Celtic and Partick Thistle forward Simon Donnelly reflected on the draw and said: “I think Rangers and Celtic will fancy their chances with that draw, they’ve got away ties but the two will be expected to come through those games you would imagine.

“It’s a terrific draw for BSC Glasgow. Whoever comes through the replay between Dundee United and Hibernian will be a huge test for them, it will be a great experience for them to go up against players of that calibre so it’s probably the tie of the round for me.”

Ex-Rangers midfielder Alex Rae said: “I think BSC Glasgow will be delighted, particularly with it being a home tie and either of Dundee United or Hibernian likely to bring thousands.

“Hamilton have caused a number of upsets over the years on their home turf, Clyde famously have too. I know that the top teams don’t enjoy playing on artificial pitches so it leaves a few potential upsets on the cards, but I would imagine the quality of the Premiership sides should shine through.”

The ties are set to take place on the weekend of February 8, 2020.
