The 2024–25 Greek Football Cup, also named Betsson Greek Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 83rd edition of the Greek Football Cup. Panathinaikos were the defending champions having won the 2023–24 edition of the cup. Olympiacos, the winner of the Cup, earned the right to participate in the 2025–26 UEFA Europa League third qualifying round (although they ultimately qualified for the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League league phase through the Super League) and also in the 2025 Greek Super Cup. Since Olympiacos won both the 2024–25 Super League Greece and the Greek Cup, the Greek Cup's runner-up OFI provided the opposition for the Super Cup match.

Matches

Knockout phase Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the quarter-finals and the semi-finals, was played by a single match. If the score was level at the end of normal time, extra time was played, followed by a penalty shoot-out if the score was still level. In the quarter-finals and the semi-finals were played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level, the away goals rule was applied, i.e. the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs advanced. If away goals were also equal, then extra time was played. The away goals rule was again applied after extra time, i.e. if there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team advanced by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the winners were decided by a penalty shoot-out. In the round of 16, if the score was level at the end of normal time the two-legged rule was applied.The mechanism of the draws for each round is as follows: In the draw for the Round of 16, the four Super League clubs finishing in places 1–4 in the previous season are seeded, while the clubs advancing from the Fifth Round are unseeded.The seeded teams are drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. The remaining 8 unseeded clubs will be drawn against one another with the team being drawn last hosting the second leg. In the draws for the quarter-finals onwards, there are no seedings and teams from the same group can be drawn against each other.

Bracket

Round of 16 The 12 winners of the fourth round and the 4 teams participating in the European competitions (PAOK, AEK, Olympiacos, Panathinaikos) participate in the round of 16. The draw took place on 2 October 2024.
