Format and results

For the fourteenth consecutive season, the tournament was played in a double round-robin system. The team with most points at the end of the season was declared champion. The bottom four teams were relegated and will play in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B in the 2017 season.

Atlético Mineiro and Chapecoense did not play their last match due to the accident involving 71 deaths (including 19 Chapecoense players) on 28 November 2016. Due to a lack of squad depth, both teams decided to forfeit the game resulting in Chapecoense finishing 11th and Atlético Mineiro finishing 4th.{{cite web|url=http://www.espnfc.com/futebol-brasileiro/story/3009180/atletico-mineiro-say-they-wont-play-final-round-match-vs-chapecoense|title=Atletico Mineiro say they won't play final-round match vs. Chapecoense|author=ASSOCIATED PRESS|date=1 December 2016|publisher=ESPN|access-date=10 December 2016}} Match officials declared a double W.O., as CBF refused to cancel the match.{{cite web|url=https://esporte.uol.com.br/futebol/ultimas-noticias/2016/12/05/presidente-da-chape-diz-que-cbf-ja-cancelou-jogo-contra-o-atletico-mg.htm|title=Sem jogo: CBF confirma WO duplo em Chapecoense x Atlético-MG}}

The four promoted clubs replaced Avaí, Vasco da Gama, Goiás and Joinville. At the end of the season, for the third consecutive year, Rio de Janeiro did not have its four representatives in the first division, largely due to the inconsistent performance of Vasco da Gama and Botafogo, who alternated in relegation in recent seasons.
