There are 14 ties in the first round of the Scottish League Cup on Saturday, with Premiership pair Hamilton Accies and Dundee both in action.

Alex Neil's side welcome Allan Moore's Arbroath to New Douglas Park while Paul Hartley's men kick off their 2014/15 campaign with a home game against League 2 champions Peterhead.

Falkirk, who reached the Premiership play-offs last season, are away to Montrose and Queen of the South, who also made a top-four finish in the Championship, entertain Elgin City.

There is a local derby at Recreation Park where Alloa meet Stirling Albion - with the teams also paired together in the second round of the Petrofac Training Cup at Forthbank.

It's a similar scenario for Jim Duffy’s Morton and Colin Cameron’s Berwick Rangers, who square up at Cappielow in both cup competitions.

Barry Ferguson’s Clyde are at home to Championship side Cowdenbeath, having already knocked Ayr United out of the Petrofac Training Cup at Broadwood.

The tie between Queen's Park and Rangers at the Excelsior Stadium goes ahead on the date for the second round - Tuesday August 26 - after being postponed due to Glasgow 2014.

Details of the second-round draw, which will take place next week, are still to be finalised.
