Campeonato Paulista

For the 2015 Campeonato Paulista, the 20 teams are divided in five groups of 4 teams (A, B, C, D). They will face all teams, except those that are in their own group, with the top two teams from each group qualifying for the quarter-finals, where they will face each other. The top teams from each group will host the match. The best campaign also guarantees the home advantage for the semi-final as well as hosting the second leg of the finals.[17]
