Cumbernauld and Kilsyth land testing West Cup ties
Cumbernauld have been given a home tie against fellow Super League First Division side Kilwinning Rangers.
Kilwinning are unbeaten in 12 league and cup games since losing to Kilsyth in September and were 3-0 winners over United when the sides met at Kilwinning in December. Kilsyth face an even tougher match on paper away to Super League Premier side Beith.
