St Johnstone will face Ayr United, Alloa Athletic, Stirling Albion and Stenhousemuir in their League Cup group next month.
Saints exited last year’s competition at that stage of the competition but will have high hopes of progressing to the knock-out rounds this time around.
Ayr finished second in the Championship, with Alloa fourth in League One.
Stirling were the League Two champions, while Stenhousemuir are the weakest opponent on paper having placed sixth in the bottom division of the SPFL.
