Hearts and Hibernian have both been given home ties in a fourth round Scottish Cup draw which kept most of the top sides apart.

Hearts have ben paired with fellow Premiership side Livingston at Tynecastle, while Elgin City visit Easter Road to face Hibs. The Edinburgh sides played each other at this stage of the competition last season, with Hearts winning 1-0.

Elsewhere in the draw, two local derbies were pulled from the hat after Ayr United were paired away to Ayrshire neighbours, Auchinleck Talbot, while Dunfermline Athletic travel to Kirkcaldy to take on Raith Rovers. Holders Celtic, meanwhile, host Airdrie and Rangers face off away to League Two Cowdenbeath.

Stenhousemuir, who knocked rivals Falkirk out of the cup, were awarded with a trip to Pittodrie to play Aberdeen. The Ochilview side produced one of the biggest ever shocks in the tournament in 1995 when they dispatched the Dons from the competition to reach the quarter finals.
