The 2020 Copa do Nordeste was the 17th edition of the main football tournament featuring teams from the Brazilian Northeast Region. The competition featured 16 clubs, with Bahia, Ceará and Pernambuco having two seeds each, and Rio Grande do Norte, Sergipe, Alagoas, Paraíba, Maranhão and Piauí with one seed each. Four teams were decided by a qualifying tournament (Pré-Copa do Nordeste). The tournament began on 21 January and ended on 4 August.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic in Brazil, CBF suspended the Copa do Nordeste indefinitely on 17 March 2020.[1] On 7 July 2020, CBF announced that the Copa do Nordeste would be resumed behind closed doors on 21 July 2020.[2] The last round of the group stage, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals were played in Salvador, Feira de Santana, Riachão do Jacuípe, and Mata de São João. All the chosen venues are in the state of Bahia.[3]

Ceará defeated Bahia 4–1 on aggregate in the finals to win their second title. As champions, Ceará qualified for the Round of 16 of the 2021 Copa do Brasil.[4]

Fortaleza were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the semi-finals.

Format

In this season, 12 teams (9 state league champions and best placed teams in the 2019 CBF ranking from Bahia, Ceará and Pernambuco) gained direct entries into the group stage while the other four berths were decided by the Pré-Copa do Nordeste.[5]

For the group stage, the 16 teams were drawn into two groups. Each team played once against the eight clubs from the other group. Top four teams qualified for the final stages. Quarter-finals and semi-finals were played on a single-leg basis and finals were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis.[6]
