There are eight Scottish League Cup clashes taking place between Friday and Sunday
Edinburgh giants Hearts and Hibernian are both playing away from home
Recommended bets:
With the likes of Kilmarnock, St Mirren, Aberdeen, Ross County and St Johnstone having lifted the trophy over the last 14 years, the Scottish League Cup has thrown up its fair share of surprises.
This weekend will see round two action from the competition taking place, including a number of all-Scottish Premiership clashes to look forward to.
All three of our best bets come in all-top-flight clashes, as some of the country's biggest teams look set for an early League Cup exit.
St Mirren vs Hearts Prediction
There is plenty of excitement at Tynecastle these days, with Brighton owner Tony Bloom investing at Hearts and hoping the Jambos can ruffle the feathers of Celtic and Rangers.
Winning their first two Premiership games against Aberdeen and Dundee United, Hearts have certainly hit the ground running and now have St Mirren in their sights on Saturday.
The Paisley outfit are without a win in the league so far this term, losing to champions Celtic before being held at home to Motherwell.
All the momentum appears to be with Hearts going into this one and the Jambos can head back across the M8 with the victory on Saturday.

Kilmarnock vs Dundee United Prediction
Unbeaten in their first two Premiership games, against Livingston and Hibernian, Kilmarnock have proven themselves to be a tough nut to crack at this early stage of the campaign.
Playing out 2-2 draws in both their league games, Killie will be confident they have the firepower in the final third to come out on top when Dundee United head to Rugby Park on Sunday.
The Tangerines have had a hectic schedule with Conference League qualifying commitments and a League Cup game will not be high on their list of priorities.
Killie, who are unbeaten in their last six meetings with the Terrors, can take advantage and are at a great price to deliver a home win on Sunday.

Livingston vs Hibernian Prediction
Finishing best of the rest in the Premiership last season behind Celtic and Rangers, Hibernian are also hoping to narrow the gap on the Old Firm giants.
After being held to a frustrating 2-2 draw by Killie last time out, manager David Gray will be determined to see his side get back to winning ways on Sunday at Livingston.
Hibernian are unbeaten in their last six games against Livi and the Hibees are also another good price to leave West Lothian with the victory this weekend.
