The 2014–15 Svenska Cupen is the 59th season of Svenska Cupen and the third season with the current format. The winners of the competition will earn a place in the second qualifying round of the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League, unless they have already qualified for European competition, in which case the qualification spot will go to another team, determined by a number of factors.
A total of 96 clubs will enter the competition.[1][2] IF Elfsborg are the defending champions, having beaten Helsingborgs IF 1–0 in last season's final.
The only two associations of the Swedish District Football Associations that had a qualifying tournament were Dalarnas FF and Örebro Läns FF, the other districts decided their teams by Distriktsmästerskap (District Championships) or by club ranking 2013.
