The 2007 Hazfi Cup final was a two-legged football tie in order to determine the 2006–07 Hazfi Cup champion of Iranian football clubs. Saba Battery faced Sepahan in this final game. The first leg took place on June 9, 2007, at 17:00 local time (UTC+3:30) at Derakhshan Stadium in Robat Karim and the second leg took place on June 16, 2007, at 16:30 local time (UTC+3:30) at Naghsh Jahan Stadium, Esfahan.
Format The rules for the final were exactly the same as the one in the previous knockout rounds. The tie was contested over two legs with away goals deciding the winner if the two teams were level on goals after the second leg. If the teams could still not be separated at that stage, then extra time would have been played with a penalty shootout (taking place if the teams were still level after extra time).
