The 2019 Copa do Brasil (officially the Copa Continental Pneus do Brasil 2019 for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the 31st edition of the Copa do Brasil football competition. It was held between 5 February and 18 September 2019.[2] The competition was contested by 91 teams, either qualified through participating in their respective state championships (70), by the 2019 CBF ranking (10), by the 2018 Copa do Nordeste (1), by the 2018 Copa Verde (1), by the 2018 Série B (1) or those qualified for 2019 Copa Libertadores (8).

Athletico Paranaense defeated Internacional 3–1 on aggregate in the finals to win their first title.[3] As champions, Athletico Paranaense qualified for the 2020 Supercopa do Brasil, the 2020 Copa Libertadores group stage and the 2020 Copa do Brasil Round of 16.[4]

Cruzeiro were the defending champions, but lost in the semifinals 0–4 on aggregate to Internacional.
