Scottish League Cup
Dundee United entered the competition in the second round and were drawn against Scottish Championship side Dumbarton.[4] They won the tie 3-2 and progressed to face fellow Scottish Premiership team Partick Thistle in the third round.[5] They defeated Partick Thistle 4–1 with David Goodwillie scoring a hat-trick but then lost to Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the quarter-finals.

Scottish Cup
Dundee United entered the Scottish Cup in the fourth round and came from behind to defeat Kilmarnock 5–2 to progress to the next stage. They followed this up with wins against St Mirren and Inverness Caledonian Thistle to reach the semi-finals. They were drawn to face Rangers at Ibrox as the usual venue, Hampden Park, was being redeveloped for the 2014 Commonwealth Games.[6] United were unhappy with this as they felt the game should be played a neutral venue, as is usually the case for semi-finals, but their request to move the game elsewhere was rejected.[7] In spite of this, United went on to win 3-1 and faced St Johnstone in the final. Demand for tickets was high with over 28,000 being sold,[8] but the large support was ultimately left disappointed as United lost 2–0.
