Final

Heart of Midlothian were appearing in the first major final in their history. Rangers were making their fourth appearance, having lost all of the previous three including in 2023. They had already won the 2024 Scottish Women's Premier League Cup final two months earlier, but had been narrowly beaten to the 2023–24 Scottish Women's Premier League title a week before the Scottish Cup final.

Rangers justified their pre-match status as favourites with a 2–0 victory through goals from Rachel McLauchlan, Lizzie Arnot in either half, with Hearts defending strongly for the most part and goalkeeper Charlotte Parker-Smith doing much to prevent further goals; however the Edinburgh side showed little going forward to trouble the Glasgow team's defence.
