THERE are two all-Premiership derby clashes in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup after Motherwell and Hamilton and Hearts and Hibernian were paired together.
It is the third time in three seasons that the Edinburgh pair have met on cup duty, with Hibs winning on both previous occasions.
The draw was made by Scotland rugby legend Doddie Weir and former midfielder Colin Cameron on Monday evening.
And there are three all top flight fixtures as Kilmarnock get set to host Ross County for a place in the fifth on the weekend of January 20 and 21.
Holders Celtic will kick-off their bid for another triumph when they face Championship strugglers Brechin City in what will be their first competitive outing of 2018 following the Old Firm clash at Parkhead on December 30.
Rangers will return from their trip Stateside to play in the Florida Cup and hit the road once again after being drawn with Highland League side Fraserburgh.
Elsewhere, Aberdeen will host St Mirren as Jack Ross’ side look to cause what would be one of the shocks of the round and Partick Thistle will meet either Montrose or Queen of the South.
