The 2022 Scottish Cup Final will be held on May 21 at Hampden Park. The Rangers will face Hearts in the finals of the tournament. Here, you will find when, where, and how to watch the game and predictions.
Preview:
Rangers were unable to capture their first European championship in half a century since Eintracht Frankfurt defeated them in the final of the Europa League 5-4 on penalties after the game ended 1-1 after 120 minutes.
Rangers have successfully won the Scottish Cup 33 times during their 150-year history; however, the most recent time they claimed the title was in 2008-09 when they defeated Falkirk 1-0 in the championship game.
Nine goals were scored by Celtic, Motherwell, and Rangers in three league losses for Hearts before Saturday’s Scottish Cup final. Even though the Rangers are expected to come out on top this weekend, the Jam Tarts can take heart from their last encounter in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals.
Two years ago, Hearts were beaten 2-1 by Celtic in the Scottish Cup final, and a year later, the club was beaten on penalties by the Hoops following a 3-3 draw in 120 minutes.
