The rules for the final were exactly the same as the one for the previous knockout rounds. The tie was contested over two halves with away goals deciding the winner if the two teams were level on goals after the second half. If the teams ties, then extra time would have been played. If the teams are still tied aftet the extra time, a penalty shootout will follow. Since the 2011–12 season, the final is always held as a single match.^[2]

This was Tractor Sazi's fourth Hazfi final and Naft Tehran's second appearance in the final match of the tournament. Tractor Sazi had last won the cup in 2013–14, and were 2-time runners-up in 1976 and 1995. Naft Tehran appeared in the final in 2015 and lost to Zob Ahan.
