Attendees
Participants were the winners of the 1996 state championships and some of them were runner-up. Furthermore, a selection of teams determined by the association was added. Compared to the previous season, the field of participants was increased by four clubs.
mode
The mode consisted of a knockout system . In the preliminary round and in the sixteenth finals, the rule was that if a team wins an away first leg by at least two goals, there is no second leg.
After the first and second leg, only the number of wins counted. If this did not result in a winner, the goal difference counted. In the event of a tie, the away goals rule was applied. If no winner was determined after these were used, this was determined in a penalty shoot-out.
Preliminary round
The Bacabal EC qualified for the preliminary round declined to participate. The club canceled a week before the start of the tournament. He justified this with a lack of cash. For the runner-up from the state championship of Maranhão from 1996, the Sampaio Corrêa FC did not want to step in as a substitute team. For the first time, the Maranhão association had no representative in the competition. The preliminary round opponent of Bacabal of the Fortaleza EC came without a fight into the sixteenth finals.
