Overview

  • The Women’s Scottish Cup Final will be played at Hampden Park on Sunday 31 May with a 2pm kick‑off and live coverage on BBC One Scotland and BBC iPlayer.
  • Rangers enter as holders chasing a third straight Cup and are seeking to bounce back after a 6-0 loss to Glasgow City cost them the SWPL title on the final day.
  • Celtic arrive short on form, having finished fifth in the league and gone seven games without a win, but manager Grant Scott and captain Kelly Clark have urged the squad to treat the final as a fresh chance for silverware.
  • Pre‑match odds from bet365, cited by coverage, list Rangers as clear favourites while players on both sides emphasise determination to deliver for fans at a high‑profile Old Firm derby.
  • The final highlights the rising profile of women’s football in Scotland and rekindles a local rivalry with historical context: both clubs have won the cup twice and Glasgow City still hold the record with nine titles.
