Celtic vs Rangers Scottish League Cup final ref & VAR confirmed for Hampden showdown

The referee and VAR officials for the Scottish League Cup Final 2024 between Celtic and Rangers have been confirmed.

John Beaton will take charge of the showpiece final at Hampden on Sunday, December 15.

He will be assisted by linesmen David McGeachie and Jonathan Bell, with Alan Muir and Frank Connor providing further assistance on VAR.


This is the second time the sides have met this season so far, with Celtic running out 3-0 winners at Parkhead earlier this year.

The sides will meet again shortly after the Scottish League Cup final, when they face each other in Scottish Premiership competition on January 2, 2025 at Ibrox.

En route to this competition's final stage, Celtic overcame Aberdeen 6-0 at the beginning of last month, whereas Rangers staged a second-half comeback to win 2-1 against Motherwell the following day.
