It’s the Scottish Cup final: Celtic versus Dunfermline Athletic. Celtic have won the cup 42 times, Dunfermline twice, including 1961 when they beat Celtic. These two clubs met in the final three other times, in 1965, 2004 and 2007, and Celtic won each time.

Celtic snapped up the Championship title last weekend after trailing all season. 1985 was the last time the Old Firm did not win the title. Winning the Scottish Cup is easy in comparison; since 1985 non-Old Firm clubs have won it 15 times.

Dunfermline manager Neil Lennon has won the Scottish Cup four times as a player and four times as a manager. Celtic manager Martin O’Neill has won the cup three times as a manager.
