Scottish Communities League Cup: Hearts to face Dundee United away

HEARTS were today drawn to face Dundee United at Tannadice in the quarter-final of the Scottish Communities League Cup.

The tie will take place on Tuesday October 30 or Wednesday October 31 and comes less than two weeks since the Edinburgh club recorded a 3-0 league victory at the Tayside venue.

After defeating Livingston at home in the previous round, Hearts will be keen to progress to the semi-finals of the tournament but United present difficult opposition. They overcame Queen of the South in the last round and will be happy at getting a home draw in the quarter-finals.

The only non-SPL team in the draw, Rangers, found themselves paired with Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Ibrox.
