Knockout stages

A draw by CBF was held on August 18 to set the matches for this round. The 16 qualified teams were divided in two pots. Teams from pot 1 were the ones who competed at the 2014 Copa Libertadores plus the two highest CBF ranked teams qualified via the Third Round. Pot 2 was composed of the other teams that qualified through the Third Round. Each pot was divided into 4 pairs according to the CBF ranking. That division ensured that each team within a pair will not face each other before the finals, as they will be placed in opposite sides of the bracket. There was a draw to decide the home team of the round of 16. The following stages had other draws to determine the order of the matches as the tournament advanced.
