The 2017–18 Finnish Cup (Suomen Cup) was the 64th season of the Finnish Cup. It was the second edition of the tournament to be played on a fall-spring schedule, running from July to September of the following year. The introduction of this new competition format meant that the Liiga Cup was discontinued.[1]
The winner of the Men's Finnish Cup was awarded a cash prize of EUR 50,000 with the runners up receiving EUR 10,000. The winner also qualified for the 2019–20 UEFA Europa League.[2] Times up to 28 October 2017 and from 25 March 2018 are EEST (UTC+3). Times from 29 October 2017 to 24 March 2018 are EET (UTC+2).
