Pogon
Pogon, known as the "Porters," currently holds the seventh position in the league table of the Polish championship, trailing the leader Jagiellonia by eight points. It's worth noting that Pogon faced Jagiellonia in the last round. In the away match, the "Pride of Pomerania" scored first already in the 15th minute, but by halftime had conceded two goals.

On the way to the final, Pogon defeated opponents such as Gornik Zabrze (2-1), Lech Poznan (1-0), and Jagiellonia (2-1). Notably, all victories were secured in extra time.
Wisla
The "White Star" currently occupies the fifth position in the league table of the First Division. In 30 matches, Wisla has accumulated 49 points, which is ten points less than the leading Lechia Gdansk.

On the path to the final, Wisla overcame Slask Wroclaw (4-1), Widzew Lodz (2-1 in extra time), and Piast (2-1).
