The semi-final draw for the Premier Sports Cup has been made.
Celtic will face Aberdeen and Rangers will take on Motherwell in the last four of the competition.
The games will be played at Hampden Park in Glasgow. They are scheduled for the first weekend of November, over Saturday 2nd and 3rd. Exact details over kick-off times will be released in due course.
Motherwell were the first time to secure their place in the hat, as a late Lennon Miller penalty saw off the challenge of Dundee United on Friday evening.
They were joined on Saturday night by both Aberdeen and Rangers. Respectively, they defeated The Spartans and Dundee with ease.
Celtic had a far tougher test in the shape of Championship Falkirk than they did on Wednesday night against Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League.
The Bairns gave a great account of themselves, taking the lead in Glasgow's east end TWICE before half time.
However, Brendan Rodgers made multiple changes to his starting XI as he brought on his big hitters, including Greg Taylor and Nicolas Kuhn, to secure the Hoops' spot in the last four.
Former Livingston and Hibernian player Marvin Bartley conducted the draw.
