The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) announced this Monday the dates, times, and venues for the first round matches of the 2026 Copa do Brasil. The organization has called this edition the most democratic in history, as it features 126 participating clubs—the highest number of teams the competition has ever had.
The Copa do Brasil will kick off on February 17 and will open with the match between Sampaio Corrêa-RJ and Desportiva-ES at Lourival Gomes, in Saquarema (RJ).
In this stage, 28 clubs will compete for 14 spots in the second round. In the event of a draw at the end of the match, qualification will be decided by penalty shootout.
