THE Premier Sports Cup draw will take place tomorrow to determine the groups before fixtures begin in July.
The competition will be different this season with regionalisation scrapped in the draw meaning teams from across Scotland can be drawn against each other.
The draw will decide the teams in each five-team group with 37 SPFL teams joined by Highland League champions Fraserburgh and Lowland League winners Bonnyrigg Rose.
Buckie Thistle will also be in the draw as Highland League runners-up.
Celtic, Rangers, Heart of Midlothian, Dundee United and Motherwell all automatically advance to the last 16 after qualifying for Europe.
