The competition is a knock-out tournament contested by 32 teams. This consists of the 30 clubs from the Scottish Championship, Scottish League One and Scottish League Two, plus two senior clubs from outside the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) by invitation, namely the reigning champions of the Highland Football League and the Lowland Football League.〔 The first round of matches starts early in the Scottish football season, a week before the beginning of the SPFL season. Since the 2012–13 competition, the first and second rounds are divided into two geographical regions – north/east and south/west – with 16 clubs in each.〔 Within each region the clubs are paired at random and the first club drawn listed as the home team.〔 The winner of each match progresses to the next round and the loser is eliminated from the tournament. After the second round the regional matches end and the remaining eight clubs, four from each region, can be drawn against any other club. Every match, including the final, is a one-legged tie that lasts 90 minutes plus any additional stoppage time. If no clear winner has been determined after 90 minutes of normal time, 30 minutes of extra time is played. If the score is still level after extra time then the winner is decided by a penalty shoot-out.〔
