Final
editRangers entered the tournament as Scottish Cup holders and reached their third consecutive final; they lost to Celtic in 2023 before overcoming Heart of Midlothian in 2024. It was a 15th appearance in the final for opponents Glasgow City, with nine wins (the record for the competition) and five defeats.
The two clubs had met once before in a Scottish Cup final, in 2009, with City (already established as one of the leading teams in the country) proving far too strong for second-tier Rangers (in their first season of competition).
The finalists had suffered disappointment in the lead-up to the match as both were in contention for the 2024–25 Scottish Women's Premier League on the final matchday, but the title went to Hibernian.
