Taxonomy and format
Configure Home and away with Total slots, away goals rule, Aggregate, Second leg pending, Extra time, and Penalties on the official record.
Home and away is a two-match elimination bracket, not a long standings table.
In mobile, the organizer chooses Home and away in Taxonomy and format and uses Total slots to set the bracket size before generating fixtures.
Setup also asks for Fill mode, Initial positioning criteria, and Use away goals rule? That lets the league decide before the first match how the series will be built and broken.
Each fixture needs to show where the series stands and why a team advanced.
The bracket shows First leg, Second leg, Aggregate, and Second leg pending so organizers, teams, referees, and fans understand the fixture state without a parallel spreadsheet.
Extra time and Penalties appear only in the deciding match when Aggregate stays level or when the away goals rule does not resolve progression.
The choice starts in Taxonomy and format, but it only works once it becomes the official structure.
In the app, Home and away in Copa Fut starts during championship setup alongside modality, category, schedule, and rules. That base defines whether the league will operate a bracket, groups, rounds, standings, or a combination of those blocks.
That view turns home and away championship into an operational decision. The format has to support real matches, digital match sheets, refereeing, standings, and official publishing without creating a second routine outside Copa Fut.
The structure needs to be clear before it becomes a public schedule, bracket, or table.
Before publishing the competition, review slots, registered teams, dispute rules, tiebreakers, walkovers, and what the current plan unlocks for that championship.
When that review happens on the same record, the league reduces mid-season format changes and preserves the official reading for athletes, coaches, referees, sponsors, and fans.

Not on this page. Home and away in Copa Fut means two-match elimination fixtures with progression by Aggregate, away goals when enabled, Extra time, or Penalties. Long seasons are closer to Round robin.
They appear in the deciding match when the series still needs a winner. In home-and-away ties, Extra time and Penalties only enter when Aggregate is level, and with away goals enabled only if both Aggregate and away goals remain level.
Home and away in Copa Fut should be selected when the league can sustain the structure from setup through the final round. The decision should consider team count, season length, the main structure, decision criteria, and official publishing routines.
The next step is generating or reviewing the championship structure. From there, Copa Fut materializes fixtures, rounds, groups, or standings, and that base feeds matches, digital match sheets, standings, scorers, media, and official history.
