A draw for the first round was held by CBF on December 15, 2016, 11:00 BRST at CBF headquarters in Rio de Janeiro.[6] The 80 qualified teams were divided in eight groups (A-H) with 10 teams each. That division was based on the 2017 CBF ranking and the matches were drawn from the respective confronts: A vs. E; B vs. F; C vs. G; D vs. H. The lower ranked teams hosted the first round match.
In the first round, each match was played on a single-legged basis. The lower ranked team hosted the match and, in tie cases, the higher ranked team advanced to next round.
In the second round, each match was played on a single-legged basis. In case of tie, the qualified team was determined by penalty shoot-out.
In the third round, each match was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If tied on aggregate, the away goals rule would be used. If still tied, extra time would not be played, and the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner.
