Template:Short description Template:Infobox tournament seasonScript error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
The 2009 Copa do Brasil was the 21st edition of the Copa do Brasil. It began on February 18 and ended on July 1.
Format
The tournament is played in six stages, with two teams playing a two-legged tie in each stage. In the first two rounds, if the away team wins the first match by at least a 2-goal difference, it will move towards next round. The away goals rule is also used in the Copa do Brasil. The winner will qualify to the 2010 Copa Libertadores, which prevents them from participating in next year's Copa do Brasil.
Qualified teams
The 2009 edition was contested by 64 teams. 54 clubs qualified through their respective state championship or some other competition. The number of berth given to each state (one, two, or three) is determined through CBF's state ranking.[1] Criteria may vary, but usually state federations indicate clubs with best records in the state championships or other special competitions organized by such institutions. The remaining ten clubs qualified through CBF's club ranking.[2] Clubs that participated in the 2009 Copa Libertadores did not take part in the competition because of scheduling conflicts.
