United have been drawn against Ross County, Arbroath, Elgin City and Alloa Athletic in Group A for the 2018/19 Betfred Cup.
The format, announced in advance of the 2016 Betfred Cup, sees all drawn group stage matches go straight to a penalty shoot-out with the winners earning an extra ‘bonus point’ in addition to the traditional point given for a draw. The eight group winners and four best runners-up progress to the last 16 where they are joined by holders Celtic and fellow European representatives Aberdeen, Rangers and Hibernian.
The four group games are scheduled to be played on 14 July, 18 July, 21 July, 25 July and 28 July.
