Botafogo-PB were crowned champions, after a repeat of the 2018 final against Campinense.
Qualification
The competition was divided into a number of stages.
In the first (group) stage, the ten teams were divided into two groups of five. Each team played the five teams in the other group, home and away, for a total of ten games. The teams that finished first and second in each group qualified directly for the second (semi-final) stage. The teams that finished last in each group were relegated to the second division.
In the second (semi-final) stage, the winner of each group played the runner up of their group over two games, home and away. The group winner had home advantage in the second leg.
In the third (final) stage, the two winning teams from the second (semi-final) stage played over two legs, with the team with the best record in the competition so far playing the second leg at home.[1]
The two finalists qualified to participate in the 2020 Copa do Brasil and 2020 Copa do Nordeste. The two best placed teams (other than those already participating in a national league) qualified to participate in the 2020 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[1]
