Format The tournament has two stages. On the first stage, all teams are split in two groups. In first round, each team plays against all other teams in the team's same group. In the second round, each team plays against all other teams in the other group. In both rounds, the two best teams in each group advances to a playoff, where the four teams play to find the team who wins the round.
On the second stage, the winner of the first round plays against the winner of the second round. If the same team wins both rounds, that team is the champion.
The bottom two teams on overall classification will be relegated.
Qualifications The champion, the runner-up and the third place in overall standings qualify to 2014 Copa do Brasil. The best team who isn't playing on Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, Série B or Série C qualifies to the 2013 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.
