The 2016 Copa do Brasil will be the 27th edition of the Copa do Brasil football competition. The competition will be contested by 86 teams, either qualified through participitating their respective state championships (70), by the CBF Rankings (10) or those qualified for 2015 Copa Libertadores (5) and the team with the best 2015 Série A record (excluding those qualified for 2016 Copa Libertadores) . Those 6 clubs enter the competition in the 4th stage. The best six teams of the 2015 Brazilian Championship eliminated until the third round will qualify for the 2016 Copa Sudamericana.
Format
The competition is a single elimination knockout tournament featuring two-legged ties. In the first two rounds, if the away team wins the first match by 2 or more goals, it progresses straight to the next round avoiding the second leg. The away goals rule is also used in the Copa do Brasil, but this edition will be the first to not feature that rule in the finals.[1] The winner qualifies for the 2016 Copa Libertadores.
