Only two teams are left to battle it out for the Scottish Cup title this season. Celtic are chasing a coveted domestic treble, while Inverness are hoping to secure their first major trophy at Hampden Park.
Scottish Cup Final Preview
This season’s Scottish Cup has been thrilling, but only two teams remain in the running for the prestigious trophy. Celtic are the clear favourites, having already triumphed in the Scottish Premiership and Scottish League Cup this term.
The Scottish champions had a superb run in this competition between 2016 and 2020, winning all four editions. However, they failed to win the previous two. Despite this, they haven’t lost a Scottish Cup final since 2002, boasting a remarkable record in one-off games. They head into the final in top form, having ended the Premiership campaign with a dominant 5-0 home victory over Aberdeen.

Inverness are hoping to make history in this year’s competition, having reached the Scottish Cup final just once before. They managed this feat in 2015, securing a famous 2-1 win over Falkirk. However, they will have their work cut out for them against Celtic this weekend.
Inverness are major underdogs, finishing sixth in the Scottish Championship. They booked their place in the final last month with a 3-0 win over Falkirk, but could be slightly rusty having played only once this month.
Celtic vs Inverness Head to Head
Celtic have an impressive record against Inverness, winning 21 out of 29 previous meetings. The two sides last faced off in March 2017, with Celtic recording a 4-0 victory. Across the last three matches, Celtic have scored 13 goals without conceding any.
Celtic vs Inverness Prediction
The recent meetings suggest that this final will be a one-sided affair, with Celtic expected to easily clinch the Scottish Cup title. We predict at least a three-goal margin of victory for the Scottish champions.
