The 2024 Svenska Cupen final will be played on 1 May 2024 between Malmö FF and Djurgårdens IF at Eleda Stadion, Malmö, the home ground of Malmö FF, determined in a draw on 24 March 2024 after the semi-finals.[1] The final will be the culmination of the 2023–24 Svenska Cupen, the 68th season of Svenska Cupen and the twelth season with the current format.
Background
The winner will qualify for the Europa League first qualifying round. However, since Malmö FF won the 2023 Allsvenskan, they are already qualified for the Champions League second qualifying round. If Malmö FF win the final, the Europa League spot will be passed to the second-placed team in 2023 Allsvenskan, IF Elfsborg, and the second Conference League second qualifying round spot will be passed to the fourth-placed team, Djurgårdens IF.
Malmö will play their first final since 2022 and their 22nd in total. Djurgården will play their first final since 2018 and their tenth in total. Both clubs won in their previous final appearances. Having met in 1951, 1975, 1989, and 2018, this will be the fifth final to contest the two clubs. Malmö have won four of the prior meetings in the final of the competition while Djurgården have won one. The clubs faced each other once in Allsvenskan prior to the cup final, at Tele2 Arena on 25 April where Malmö won 1–0.
