Rangers

This season, Rangers haven't surprised with their results, holding their usual second place with a significant gap from the closest pursuers. However, they aren't in contention for the championship with Celtic yet. Though the gap isn't catastrophic, they could potentially resolve everything in a head-to-head clash with Celtic. In the League Cup, the most challenging opponent for Rangers was Hearts, whom they confidently defeated in the semi-finals. Also, midweek, Rangers defeated Real Betis away in the Europa League, securing a place in the playoffs from the top spot.

Aberdeen

Due to their performances in European competitions, Aberdeen has struggled in the early stages of the domestic league. With only 16 points from 15 matches, they sit at ninth place in the Premiership. In the League Cup, Aberdeen progressed through all three rounds with narrow victories. They defeated Stirling and Ross County 2-1 each before clinching a 1-0 win against Hibernian in the semi-finals.

Interesting Facts and History

• Rangers have won their last four matches.
• Aberdeen has won only two of their last eight games.
• The teams faced each other in the semi-finals of the last League Cup, with Rangers securing a place in the final after extra time.

Prediction

The 'Blues' appear as clear favorites, but as it's the final match, overly high-scoring football might not be anticipated. My bet would be under 3 goals in total.
