Set to be contested at Hearts’ Tynecastle Stadium, the match will be a landmark moment for the women’s domestic game and a chance for SWPL to ‘break down barriers’ said popular Scottish presenter Eilidh Barbour.

Malky Thomson’s Rangers, unbeaten domestically for over a year, progressed to the final of the competition thanks to a 4-0 demolition of Spartans in the semi final, whilst Hibs progressed thanks to a shock win away to Glasgow City back in November.

Speaking to Rangers TV, captain Kathryn Hill said: “It’s a big occasion, we are all looking forward to it and it is our first time in a final.

"Everyone is excited. One thing we spoke about wanting to do when I came in this summer was to do better in the cups. League is obviously the priority but every trophy for Rangers is a priority and winning the cup at the weekend would be a great start to the year”.

Meanwhile Hibs defender Poppy Lawson said: “In cup competitions, Hibs hold the record for the most amount of wins. For me, it’s my first major final so I’m looking forward to it.

"The women’s game is only going to go up. For us to break the attendance record again against Hearts in the Edinburgh was derby was excellent to see and I think this weekend we can do it again. For it to be the first domestic Scottish women’s game live on Sky Sports, it is great for the women’s game and it is only going to get bigger".
