The Welsh champions were drawn at home against the Scottish side who they previously beat in the quarter-finals of the competition last season.

The cup opened its doors to teams outside Scotland last season, with TNS and Bala Town the Welsh contingent in the campaign.

Connah's Quay Nomads join Scott Ruscoe's men this season in the cup, as they drew an away tie with Dumbarton.

Whilst the contest is unseeded, there are a number of restrictions in place in the draw, ensuring that non-Scottish teams cannot face one another.
