Scottish Cup final promises an electrifying clash between Celtic and Rangers, Scotland’s fiercest rivals, as both teams actively vie for a coveted double. Under Brendan Rodgers, Celtic secured the Scottish Premiership title overcoming initial challenges from Rangers. However, Philippe Clement’s Rangers are determined to salvage their season with a cup triumph after narrowly missing out on the league title.
Celtic captain Callum McGregor eyes success in this final which could mark his 22nd major winners’ medal, a testament to his relentless pursuit of excellence. Shaped by relentless ambition throughout his career, McGregor drives forward fueled by past defeats and desires more victories. On the other side, Rangers’ James Tavernier acknowledges the importance of seizing key opportunities to reverse their recent poor form against Celtic.
Despite a disappointing record in Old Firm clashes this season, Tavernier emphasizes the need for actions, not words, on the pitch. In terms of team news, Celtic enters the final at full strength with Stephen Welsh having recovered from injury. Rangers welcome back midfielder John Lundstram but face defensive worries with Souttar and Goldson sidelined.
Rangers’ left-back, Ridvan Yilmaz races to regain fitness while injuries raise doubts about key players’ availability. They have set the Scottish Cup final for Saturday, 25 May, 15:00 BST, at Hampden Park, Glasgow, a historic venue.
