Format
editUnlike the previous edition, this year's edition featured a single elimination knockout stage, rather than the group stage. Each team is seeded in the first round, where each team plays one legged games and the winner advances to the final rounds. The final rounds feature a Round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and final. Like the previous round, each match is played in one leg. 2019 Liga 1 champions, Sporting Cristal received a bye to the final rounds. The final is played on a neutral ground in one match.
