In the Scottish League Cup quarter-finals, Hearts claimed a decisive 3-0 win over Stenhousemuir, a team from the Championship, at Ochilview Park. This victory propelled Hearts into the semi-finals of the competition. Stenhousemuir, who compete in the second tier of Scottish football, were unable to match Hearts' performance on the day. In another quarter-final match, Ross County, a team from the third tier of Scottish football and the lowest-ranked side still in the competition, will host Hibernian at Victoria Park. This match is set to kick off at 3pm and will be the only game taking place today. Ross County’s presence in the semi-finals is considered a notable underdog story, given their lower league status. Meanwhile, one of the most anticipated matches of the tournament is set to occur at Ibrox Park, where Celtic will face Rangers at noon. This clash, known as the Old Firm derby, is a historic rivalry in Scottish football. The outcome of this match will determine which of these two top-tier teams will be eliminated from the League Cup. Later in the evening, Kilmarnock will face Aberdeen in another quarter-final encounter. This match is expected to be closely contested, as both teams are strong contenders in the Scottish Premiership. The results from these matches will shape the path to the final, setting up an exciting next stage of the competition.
