Scottish League Cup: Celtic and Rangers kept apart in quarter-finals

Celtic and Rangers were once again kept apart as the draw for the Scottish League Cup quarter-finals saw both Old Firm clubs land home ties.

The Hoops were paired with Glasgow rivals Partick Thistle after beating Hearts 3-0 at Parkhead.

Meanwhile Ally McCoist's side will face William Hill Scottish Cup winners St Johnstone at Ibrox following Tuesday's win at Falkirk.

Holders Aberdeen will continue their defence of the trophy when they host Hamilton - who sealed their place in the last eight after a dramatic 6-5 penalty shoot-out victory over Lanarkshire rivals Motherwell.

And Dundee United's reward for their last-gasp Tayside derby victory over Dundee is a trip to Hibernian's Easter Road.

Scottish League Cup quarter-final draw:

Rangers v St Johnstone

Hibernian v Dundee United

Aberdeen v Hamilton

Celtic v Partick Thistle

Ties to be played October 28-29
