Livingston won the Petrofac Training Cup last season

Hibernian and Rangers will meet in the first round of the Petrofac Training Cup for the second year running.

The Championship rivals meet at Easter Road with the hosts out to avenge last August's 2-1 extra-time loss at Ibrox.

Trophy holders Livingston begin their defence at home to Clyde, while Cowdenbeath take on Raith Rovers in a Fife derby at Central Park.

Last season's beaten finalists Alloa Athletic are away to Highland League champions Brora Rangers.

Lowland League winners Edinburgh City make their tournament debut at home to Queen's Park.

The tournament for clubs outside the top flight kicks off on the weekend of 25 July.
