Celtic will face Hearts in the 2019/20 Scottish Cup final after both made it through tough semi-finals last month.
The tournament will come to its conclusion, finally, after coronavirus-enforced delays last season when the sporting world plunged into shutdown.
Organisers have now confirmed the game will be played at Hampden Park on December 20, with a 2.15pm kick-off time.
The kick-off time for the 2019-20 @WilliamHill Scottish Cup Final has been confirmed.

It remains unlikely that supporters will be allowed inside the stadium to watch the action.
The Hoops made it through to the final thanks to a 2-0 win over Aberdeen while Hearts managed a 2-1 victory over fierce Edinburgh rivals Hibs thanks to a late penalty from Liam Boyce in extra-time.
The two sides faced each other in the 2018/19 Scottish Cup final when Celts came out on top with a 2-1 win thanks to an Odsonne Edouard double after Ryan Edwards had struck the opener.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.Â
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.Â
That is invaluable.Â
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalistâs job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
