The 2019 Copa Paraguay was the second edition of the Copa Paraguay, Paraguay's domestic football cup competition. The competition started on 28 May 2019 and concluded on 5 December 2019.[1] Libertad won their first title in the competition by beating defending champions Guaraní in the final by a 3–0 score. With both champions Libertad and runners-up Guaraní being already qualified for the 2020 Copa Libertadores, and third-placed team Deportivo Capiatá being relegated at the end of the season, the berth to the 2020 Copa Sudamericana the winners were originally entitled to was transferred to the Primera División aggregate table eighth-placed team, Sportivo Luqueño.
Format
For this edition, the competition was expanded from 48 to 64 teams, with the Primera B, Primera C, and UFI being entitled to more berths. Given the expansion, the competition did not feature any preliminary rounds for teams from the lower tiers and the 64 teams directly qualified for the first round.[2] Ties in all rounds were played as a single game, with a penalty shootout deciding the winner in case of a draw.
Teams
64 teams competed in this edition of the competition: the 12 Primera División and 16 División Intermedia teams, as well as 11 from the Primera B, 8 from the Primera C, and the 17 champions from each department of Paraguay representing the UFI.
