Not a game many will be watching back, but Simo Valakari and the Saints fans will take it. That's four wins on the spin for the Perth side. Dundee seal progression after blowing away their Championship opponents in the first-half. Really, it was made far too easy for them thanks to some calamitous Airdrie defending that gifted them numerous chances and four simple goals. Lyall Cameron got two, Clark Robertson nodded in one, and Oluwaseun Adewumi got another before a more even second half. The Bairns are back at the top of the Championship, with the returning Scott Arfield hitting a hat-trick. The visitors had led 2-1 but lost Brian Graham to a second booking before half-time. A double from substitute Tete Yengi adds to Ryan Mc Gowan's opener to see Livingston comfortably through to the quarter-finals. Cove put up a good fight but were made to pay for spurning big opportunities to equalise at 1-0. The treble is still on for the Lions. .. Well, a treble. Adama Sidibeh A late, late goal for St Johnstone just as extra-time looked inevitable. Graham Carey lets fly from distance and it flicks off Adama Sidibeh's head, leaving Hamilton keeper Dean Lyness stranded. Simo Valakari's side are heading for the last eight.

They have tested Jon Mc Cracken and really should have scored, but the home side don't seem overly rattled with their very healthy lead. Tete Yengi He's done it again! Tete Yengi smashes the ball into the bottom corner with his left foot after another Livingston counter-attack. Game over.

St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical Makenzie Kirk could have had a hat-trick in this game. The striker ghosts into space in the Accies box again, but his glancing header goes just wide of the far post. This video can not be played WATCH: Kirk glances wide for St Johnstone Leon Mc Cann St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical What a block to deny St Johnstone. Stephen Duke-Mc Kenna has been lively down the right wing since coming off the bench, and he fires a cross into a dangerous area that falls to Makenzie Kirk's feet. He looks sure to find the back of the net, but Reghan Tumilty bravely throws himself at the shot and averts the danger. St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical A huge chance for Hamilton to hit the front. Oli Shaw, on as a substitute, springs the offside trap and goes through one-on-one with Saints keeper Andy Fisher, but can't find the corner, with the keeper pushing his shot away. Dundee 4-0 Airdrieonians The visitors win a free-kick right on the edge of the box - which looked like it might have been inside the box. Adam Frizzell curls the set-piece against the crossbar. Adam Frizzell then misses a sitter in front of goal, shooting tamely at Jon Mc Cracken after a fresh-air kick from one of his team-mates. Dundee then fly up the other end and Simon Murray pulls the ball out the sky with a deft touch and chips a volley onto the bar. Livingston 1-0 Cove Rangers That should be 2-0. Jamie Brandon's header from Robbie Muirhead's corner looks as though it's nestling in the bottom left corner but Nicholas Suman produces a full-stretch save to deny the Livingston captain. What a stop! St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical There's really not much happening at Mc Diarmid Park. Elliot Watt's free-kick from the right is easily cleared by the Hamilton defence.

Four first-half goals had the game wrapped up by the break, as Dundee punished dreadful play among the Airdrie defence to pickpocket them time and again on the edge of the box. The first goal came from a corner, as Clark Robertson rose highest and his header somehow snuck between goalkeeper and defender on the line. Ten minutes later, Kyle Mac Donald sold his keeper short with a pass that Scott Tiffoney picked off. He squared to Lyall Cameron, who steered home from the middle of the box. Not learning from that lesson, Airdrieonians again lost the ball in their own half. Cameron slipped through Burnley-loanee Oluwaseun Adewumi, who tucked under the keeper when one-on-one. And it happened again just before half-time, when Kieran Wright and Dean Mc Master tried to play out from the back, only to give possession away. Simon Murray bared down on goal before squaring to Cameron - who agreed a pre-contract with Rangers earlier in the week - to tap in. The visitors did have a few chances - including Adam Frizzell's free-kick which crashed off the cross bar - but their calamitous first-half defending undid them, allowing Dundee a place in the quarter-finals for the first time since 2022. Airdrieonians boss Rhys Mc Cabe: "It was a game of two halves from us. A catalogue of mistakes, no real good play from Dundee that merited goals. We gifted them goals to make it an uphill battle. "We wanted to win the second 45 and show a good response, but the damage was already done. Every goal is avoidable at any level. " Dundee manager Tony Docherty: "I was looking for a reaction from my team. We made six changes to make sure there was energy and intensity in the side, but not diminishing any quality - and you saw that. "I was really pleased with a lot of today. Second half was a little flat but the objective was to keep a clean sheet and we got a few players - Samuels, Lopez, and particularly big Joe [Shaughnessy] - on the pitch. A good day's work.
