The highly anticipated Scottish Cup Final 2024 is fast approaching, with arch-rivals Rangers and Celtic preparing to battle it out for the coveted title later this month. The last time these two teams faced off in a Scottish Cup final was back in 2002, a memorable match where Rangers emerged victorious with a 3-2 win. Goals from John Hartson and Bobo Balde put Celtic ahead, only to be surpassed by Barry Ferguson and Peter Lovenkrands’ strikes for Rangers, securing the trophy for manager Alex McLeish’s side.

In their most recent encounter in last year’s semi-final, Celtic narrowly edged past Rangers with a solitary goal from Jota deciding the outcome after a tense 90 minutes. The upcoming Scottish Cup Final 2024 will mark the fifth and final clash between the Glasgow giants this season after their four intense battles in the Scottish Premiership.

Scheduled to take place at Hampden Park on Saturday, May 25, 2024, the Scottish Cup Final will kick off at 3pm, as confirmed by the Scottish Football Association (SFA) following initial speculations about a schedule change due to potential clashes with the FA Cup final.

To attend the Scottish Cup Final 2024, fans can secure tickets through the official Hampden Park website. The match will be broadcast live on Premier Sports and BBC Scotland, with viewers also having the option to stream the game through Premier Sports for subscribers or via BBC iPlayer.

In a thrilling semi-final showdown last month, Celtic emerged victorious against Aberdeen in a rollercoaster match that saw late drama and penalty heroics. After conceding an early goal to Bojan Miovski, Celtic fought back with goals from Nicolas Kuhn, James Forrest, and Matt O’Riley. Aberdeen managed to level the score twice, pushing the game to a dramatic penalty shoot-out that Celtic eventually clinched 6-5, with goalkeeper Joe Hart playing a pivotal role with a crucial save to secure victory for his team.
