AT least one Junior side is guaranteed to progress in the William Hill Scottish Cup after the second-round draw saw East Region champs Bo'ness United given a home tie against North kingpins Culter.
Auchinleck Talbot will head along the M8 to face unbeaten Lowland League leaders Edinburgh City while Banks O'Dee are up against the Highland League front-runners Brora Rangers.
Inverurie Locos, who are in second place behind Brora on goal difference, await the visit of a Hurlford United side fresh from a 7-1 hammering of Clachnacuddin in Inverness.
Darren Henderson, boss of the Junior Cup holders, said: "Another long trek north makes for a horrid draw. It's arguable if we could have picked a worse tie.
"Inverurie are going along strongly with my former Forfar team-mate Martin Bavidge banging in the goals for them."
The sixth Junior outfit in the draw, Linlithgow Rose, will host Dalbeattie Star if they can overcome Fraserburgh in this weekend's first-round replay at Prestonfield.
