Old Cairo Opera House

The Khedival Opera House was completed in 1869, and burned down in 1971. The first opera to be performed there was Verdi's Rigoletto. The Egyptian-themed extravaganza Aida had been commissioned for the grand opening, but was not ready until 1871.  Source.

It's the League Cup, Round Two. Morton are off, as are ICT, QoS and Raith. There are no Championship games on, but Leagues One and Two are go, which by the end of today will leave the Championship as the division with the fewest games played. That said, East Fife versus Clyde is off because of coronavirus in Clyde's dressing room.

The League Cup games are:

Alloa [1 - 0] Hearts [omg what an upset]

These two played each other just four days ago. (See below for the score.)

Arbroath [1 - 3] Dunfermline

Last year in league play they were all even, with a win, a loss and a draw.

Celtic [0 - 2] Ross County (tomorrow) [omg another upset]

Ross County knocked Celtic out of the 2015-16 semi-final and went on to win that cup.

Falkirk [0 - 4] Rangers (tomorrow)

Falkirk knocked Rangers out of the League Cup semi-finals in 1947, and Rangers returned the favour in 2009.

Hibs [1 - 0] Dundee

The last time Dundee beat Hibs in a League Cup match was 1974.

Livingston [4 - 0] Ayr United

These two have met four times in the League Cup with two wins apiece.

Motherwell [1 - 2] St Johnstone

This is the first League Cup match between these two since 1969, when St Johnstone knocked Motherwell out of the semi-finals.

St Mirren [2 - 1] Aberdeen [omg this is an upset too]

The Dons regularly win this one, but St Mirren knocked them out of the 2012-13 quarter-finals.

Which group stage runners-up have advanced to Round Two, and on average is it easier to advance from the north section or the south section?

2016-17

North: Dundee Utd. South: QoS, Motherwell, Ayr Utd.

2017-18

North: Dundee, Ross County. South: Kilmarnock, Partick Thistle.

2018-19

North: Dundee. South: Partick Thistle, QoS, St Mirren.

2019-20

North: East Fife, Forfar. South: Morton, Hamilton Accies.

2020-21

North: Arbroath, Dundee. South: Falkirk, Alloa.

Totals: North 8 (40%), South 12 (60%). It's easier to advance in the South.

In Zug

Zug's Bossard Arena. The club plays on the indoor rink. Source.

Ajoie visit Bossard Arena to play EVZ Academy, the development team of Eissportverein Zug. Ajoie were off for a week or so due to coronavirus and are now three to six games behind the other clubs.

Bossard Arena was opened in 2010, but the club has already outgrown it and there are plans in the works for a newer larger rink. Bossard can hold 7,200, but the parent club has 6,000 season ticket holders.

Ajoie have a new building.

Zug is on Lake Zug in the heart of the Swiss Confederation. Zug is the German name of the town. In French it's Zoug, in Italian Zugo. The name comes from the Latin Tugium, named after the local Celtic people the Tougeni, or in Greek Tōygenoí.

[Zug 2 - 6 Ajoie.]

Arbroath host Morton.*

Morton enter today's game in fourth place with 6 points from 2 wins and 2 losses. Arbroath are off to a slow start with only 1 point, earned in a draw with Queen of the South.

Arbroath goalkeeper Derek Gaston played seven seasons for Morton, 2012-13 to 2018-19. Bobby Linn was with Morton in 2007-08. Kris Doolan was with Morton for the first part of 2020, as was Luke Donnelly for the first part of 2017.

No one on the Morton squad has played for Arbroath.

After last night's result a win for Morton would put them even with Hearts in points if not in goal difference.

[Greenock Morton have gone vegetarian.]

A note on tiers:

The levels in the Scottish football pyramid are sometimes unofficially referred to as tiers. League Two, for instance, is in tier IV, and the WoSFL Premiership is in tier VI. But in addition the regions of Scotland are subject to a gradiated scale of Covid restrictions, and each level of strictness in that is also called a tier. So at the moment Largs Thistle, while in tier VI of Scottish football, are in tier 4 of Covid lockdown.

Sort the Championship teams by last regulation time win, why don't you?
