Benfica were the previous holders, having defeated Boavista 5–2 in the previous season's final.[2] Cup holders Benfica were eliminated in the sixth round by Belenenses.[3] Porto defeated Sporting CP, 2–1 in a final that went to a replay as the inaugural match ended goalless. Porto's cup triumph would claim them an eighth Taça de Portugal.[4][5] As a result of Porto winning the domestic cup competition, the Portistas faced 1993–94 Primeira Divisão winners Benfica in the 1994 Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira.[6][7][8]

Sixth round

Ties were played on the 30 January.[9][10] Due to the odd number of teams involved at this stage of the competition, Desportivo das Aves qualified for the quarter-finals due to having no opponent to face at this stage of the competition.
