Benfica were the previous holders, having defeated Porto 6–2 in the previous season's final. Defending champions Benfica reached the final but were unable to regain the Taça de Portugal as Vitória de Setúbal defeated the Encarnados 3–1 to claim their first Taça de Portugal.
Teams from the Primeira Liga (I) and the Portuguese Second Division (II) entered at this stage. Each side would contest a second round place by playing two matches: one home and one away match. In case the aggregate score after the two games was level, the cup tie would be replayed.
