The Betfred Cup last-16 draw was made yesterday with some mouth-watering clashes thrown up for fans to get excited about.
Celtic have taken home the silverware for the last three years running, beating Aberdeen twice and Motherwell on the big day out at Hampden.
All three of those teams remain in the competition as they bid to try getting there once again.
But potential banana skin ties have been chucked into the mix to keep things exciting.
One of the eye-catching games of the next round does indeed include one of our previous finalists from recent years.
Motherwell host Hearts at Fir Park.
The latter topped Group A despite failing to beat League One outfit East Fife last weekend, even missing out on a penalty kick bonus point.
The Steel Men, on the other hand, won four games out of four in Group E which will have given them confidence.

On the other side of the Edinburgh divide, Hibs host Greenock Morton.
Ton, with new boss David Hopkin, are one of the six teams from the lower leagues who play Premiership opposition.
Holders Celtic take on Dunfermline Athletic at Parkhead, giving them an odds-on favourites tag to progress - though they may have been as such against almost anyone else in the tournament.
Steven Gerrard's Rangers make the tough trip to East Fife after Darren Young's men surprised everyone by finishing just behind Hearts in their group.
A sublime win over Championship team Dundee United and a bonus point win over Hearts saw them manage through on eight points - nipping in front of the Tangerines on seven.
The draw in full:
Hibs vs Morton
Partick Thistle vs Ross County
Motherwell vs Hearts
Dundee vs Aberdeen
Celtic vs Dunfermline
Forfar vs Livingston
Kilmarnock vs Hamilton
