The 2013 Copa Sudamericana Finals were the final two-legged tie that decided the winner of the 2013 Copa Sudamericana, the 12th edition of the Copa Sudamericana, South America's secondary international club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL.

The finals were contested in two-legged home-and-away format between Brazilian team Ponte Preta and Argentine team Lanús. The first leg was hosted by Ponte Preta at Estádio do Pacaembu in São Paulo on 4 December 2013, while the second leg was hosted by Lanús at Estadio Ciudad de Lanús in Lanús on 11 December. The winner qualified for the 2014 Copa Libertadores, and earned the right to play against the 2013 Copa Libertadores winners in the 2014 Recopa Sudamericana, and against the 2013 J.
