b)Hearts, the third-placed team of the 2010–11 Scottish Premier League, will enter the second qualifying round. However, should Celtic win the 2010–11 Scottish Cup, Hearts will be moved up to enter the third qualifying round. The The Second qualifying round spot would be taken by the cup runners-up (if Celtic wins the cup), or the fourth-placed team of the league otherwise.
