The 2024 Copa Paraguay is the sixth edition of the Copa Paraguay, Paraguay's domestic football cup competition organized by the Paraguayan Football Association (APF). The competition began on 30 April and is scheduled to end in November 2024.[1] The winners will qualify for the 2025 Copa Libertadores and the 2024 Supercopa Paraguay against the Primera División champions with better record in the aggregate table.
Libertad are the defending champions.
Format
The competition retained the format used in the most recent editions, with 75 participating teams. The 18 Primera B Metropolitana clubs, the 12 Primera C ones, and the 17 Football Union of the Interior (UFI) champions will start the competition in the first stage, in which the Primera B and Primera C teams were drawn against a team from their same league in single-legged ties, whilst the UFI teams were paired in seven matchups and a triangular group according to geographical proximity. The 22 match winners as well as the top two teams from the triangular will advance to the second stage, in which the 16 Paraguayan División Intermedia clubs will join the competition, forming 20 single-legged ties. The 20 winning teams will advance to the third stage, where the 12 Paraguayan Primera División teams will enter. The 16 third stage winners will advance to the round of 16.[2] Ties in all rounds will be played on a single-legged basis, with a penalty shootout deciding the winner in case of a draw.
Aside from qualification for the Copa Libertadores and the Supercopa Paraguay, the Copa Paraguay champion will be awarded a monetary prize of Gs. 1 billion. The runners-up will be awarded Gs. 250 million, the third-placed team will earn Gs. 100 million, and the fourth-placed team will receive Gs. 50 million.[3]
