Cearense Championship Format
The format of the Cearense is a rather simple one. 12 teams take part in it and even though the format is regularly changed, the current one has 12 teams playing in it. That format is being followed in recent years and the league is played in three different divisions.
The 12 teams are included in a single group in the first division. Interestingly, the ties are played in three different ways. While the teams play each other in two legs, there are three different stages in each leg. This allows for more potential in availing odds and winning betting rewards.
The first stage sees the teams play each other once. After the first-stage, teams are looked at on the basis of the points. The winning team picks up three points, with the losing team getting no points. The top-four teams go on to play each other in two-legged ties on a knockout basis. The first-placed side plays the team that is fourth, while the team that is third plays the team that is second.
Brazilian Cearense Championship Final Stage
The third stage is the final one. The teams that won their knockout games in the over the two legs make it to the third stage and play in the final. This final is also a two-legged tie and the winner on aggregate is crowned the champion.
As for relegation, no play-offs or a mini-tournament is played. The two teams that finish at the bottom of the table are relegated to the second division.
The second and third division also follow quite a similar format and allow for promotion into the upper leagues in the Cearense.
