The competition featured 16 clubs, with Bahia and Pernambuco having three seeds each, and Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Sergipe, Alagoas and Paraíba with two seeds each. The 2014 Copa do Nordeste did not feature teams from the states of Maranhão and Piauí, though they are slated to enter the tournament in its 2015 edition. The champions, Sport Recife, earned a berth in the 2014 Copa Sudamericana.
