Aberdeen's clash with Dunfermline Athletic in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup will be televised as the Premier Sports and BBC Scotland picks are revealed.
The Dons secured their place in the last 16 by dumping Elgin City out of the competition with a 3-0 victory at Borough Briggs, ending a run of 12 games without victory under Jimmy Thelin.
