Format edit

  • In the first stage the sixteen seeded teams were drawn into four groups of four teams each, with each team playing once against the twelve clubs from the other three groups. After each team has played twelve matches, the top two teams of each group qualified for the quarter-final stage.
  • After the completion of the first stage, the two clubs with the lowest number of points, regardless of the group, were relegated to the Campeonato Paulista Série A2.[2]
  • Quarter-finals and semi-finals were played in a single match, with the best placed team playing at home.[2]
  • The finals were played in a two-legged home and away fixture, with the best placed team playing the second leg at home.[2]
  • In case of a draw in any knockout stage, the match was decided by a penalty shoot-out.[2]
  • The two highest-placed teams not otherwise qualified qualified for the 2025 Copa do Brasil.[2]
  • The top three highest-placed teams in the general table at the end of the competition who are not playing in any level of the national Brazilian football league system qualified for the 2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[2]

Tiebreakers edit

The teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:

  1. Higher number of wins;
  2. Superior goal difference;
  3. Higher number of goals scored;
  4. Fewest red cards received;
  5. Fewest yellow cards received;
  6. Draw in the headquarters of the FPF.
