The format of the competition was changed due to six Scottish clubs qualifying for European competition, two SPL clubs entered in the First Round.[2]
Note: the 4 best placed SPL teams not competing in European competition enter the tournament in the 2nd round and the 6 teams who are competing in European competition enter the tournament in the 3rd round.
First round
All 30 SFL clubs entered here, along with St Johnstone (as the team promoted to the SPL), and St Mirren (as the eleventh placed SPL team). The draw was held on 4 June 2009.[3]
