The Primera División C 2024 championship was the twenty-seventh official edition of Paraguay's Primera División C, one of the Fourth Division tournaments, organized by the Paraguayan Football Association.

A total of 12 teams competed in the championship.

Competition system

This tournament maintains the same format as the previous seasons, operating as a double round-robin tournament. It consists of two separate phases of 11 rounds each, where every team plays[1] against each other twice- once at home and once at away, for a total of 22 matches. The team which accumulates the most points at the end of the 22 matches is declared the champion.

In the event of a tie on points for the championship title between two teams, a single playoff match will be played to determine the winner. If three or more teams are tied in the standings, the positions are resolved using the following tie-breaking rules, in descending order:[2]

  1. Head-to-head points: Points obtained in the matches only played between the tied teams.
  2. Head-to-head goal difference: Goal difference calculated exclusively from the matches played between the tied teams.
  3. Goal difference: Total goal difference across the entire competition.
  4. Highest number of goals scored: Goals scored in the overall competition.
  5. A drawing of lots (Sorteo.)[3]

Qualification
