  Scottish Cup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scottish Football Association Challenge Cup, also known as The Scottish Cup, is the national cup knockout competition in Scottish football.
The competition is of a similar format to the FA Cup in England, with a knockout, single elimination, format where teams are drawn against each other randomly (no seedings are present).
Like the FA Cup, the Scottish Cup produces occasional "giant-killings" where a team from a lower division defeats a team from a higher division.

 Scottish League Cup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scottish League Cup is a football competition open to all Scottish Football League and Scottish Premier League members.
The competition, like the Scottish Cup, is of straight knockout (single elimination) format, although originally it had 'mini-leagues' leading to a knockout stage, somewhat like the modern-day UEFA Champions League.
The 1945-46 competition was not competed for by all clubs, owing to wartime restrictions, and does not usually count towards official records, often being referred to as the 'Southern League Cup'.

The early days of the Cup saw it take up almost permanent residence in Queen's Park's own trophy room until strong challengers like long-gone Vale of Leven and Renton, as well as more familiar names such as Hibernian and Dumbarton and the more recently departed Third Lanark emerged to capture the prize.
Hibs brought the Cup to the capital as well while Queen's Park had their tenth triumph and Third Lanark their second to give the other Glasgow clubs a look-in and Dundee won their first and only Cup in 1910.
The Scottish Cup entered an exciting phase of its development after 1919 with several of the so-called 'smaller' sides winning the tournament.
