The 2021 Campeonato Brasileiro Feminino A-2 is the 5th season of the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A2, the second level of women's football in Brazil. The tournament is organized by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). It started on 15 May and scheduled to end on 5 September 2021.

It is played by 36 teams, which qualified through state championships or other tournaments held by each of the state federations, and also by the men's CBF ranking. This last criterion exists because of the requirement that, as of 2019, all Campeonato Brasileiro Série A teams in men's football a professional and youth soccer team, either in its own structure or by partnership.

Format

In the first stage, the teams were divided into six groups of six teams each. Each group was played on a single round-robin basis. The top two teams of each group and the best third-placed teams advanced to the round od 16.

Starting from the round of 16, the teams will play a single-elimination tournament on a home-and-away two-legged basis. The teams qualified for the semifinals will be promoted to 2022 Campeonato Brasileiro Feminino Série A1

Tiebreaker criteria

In case of a tie in points between two clubs, the tie-breaking criteria will be applied in the following order:

  1. Number of wins
  2. Goal balance
  3. Goals scored
  4. Number of red cards
  5. Number of yellow cards
