In this year, seven clubs of the southern half of the state participate in the Copa Sul-Fronteira, which varies in number of participants according to the interest of clubs in the first, second and third divisions of the Campeonato Gaúcho. This time, one of the two greatest clubs in the state, the Grêmio, will compete in the Copa Sul-Fronteira, to not let unequal the Copa Metropolitana, with two big clubs in the same competition.

The current holders are Pelotas, having won the title in the last edition, being the first champion in history. However, decided to not play the competition this year.

Format

In the first stage, all teams face off in round-robin, which will qualify the top four for the next phase, known as the semi-finals. At this stage, the first placed facing the fourth place and second place playing against the third placed in two matches each. The winners face off in the final two matches to define the winner of the competition.[1]

The 2014 Copa Sul-Fronteira winners qualify for the 2014 Super Copa Gaúcha, where it will have the opportunity to qualify for 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D. The winner of the Super Copa Gaúcha also dispute the 2015 Recopa Gaúcha, against the winner of 2014 Campeonato Gaúcho at the beginning of next season.

Clubs

This year, the FGF decided to change one of the two big clubs of the state to Copa Sul-Fronteira, the Grêmio was randomly chosen. Theoretically this makes less unequal competitions. Also, the current champions Pelotas decided to not play the competition, giving priority to dispute of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série D in this season. The Guarany (BG) decided to not dispute the competition less than one month from the start of it. The following seven clubs will compete in the Copa Sul-Fronteira during the 2014 edition. [2]

gollark: Nim actually sort of has a borrow checker thing as well, somehow, I used some of the stuff tied into that for my tree traversal stuff.
gollark: Er, I mean, crab crab crab praise Ferris bow before the borrow checker?
gollark: I do prefer nim use over rust now, not because I care about it being smaller but because it feels like a nicer language for my arbitrary purposes.
gollark: I love how minoteaur's very restrictive content security policy causes four warnings on every page load because of extensions unsafely injecting JS into the page.
gollark: You use the "up arrow" button to put the last line into your input prompt thing, and then press "home" to navigate to the start of that line.
