St Johnstone v Hibs Scottish Cup final TV channel, live stream and kick-off details

After a season like no other, Hibs can end 2020/21 by lifting the Scottish Cup for the second time in five years.

After finishing third in the Scottish Premiership, St Johnstone stand between Jack Ross’ side and silverware.

Having lost last season's semi-final to Hearts and the Betfred Cup last four encounter against the Perth club back in January, the Easter Road outfit have gone one better this time.

Victory will see them enter the Europa League play-off round with participation in the Europa Conference League already secured.

But Callum Davidson has tasted success in a final at Hampden already this campaign and could become the first non-Rangers or Celtic manager to win both domestic trophies in the same season.

300 fans each were initially set to be allowed into the national stadium for the biggest game of the season, but a rise in Covid cases in Glasgow put paid to that.

That means punters will have to settle for watching from home or the pub.
