The draw for the Copa Libertadores da América groups will take place this Monday (27th), starting at 9 pm, in Luque, Paraguay, headquarters of CONMEBOL. The first round is scheduled for April 4th to 6th. According to the Conmebol ranking, the 32 teams were divided into four pots. The best eight make up pot 1 and so on up to pot 4. Each of the eight groups will be made up of one team from each pot.
One of the rules for the draw is that clubs from the same country cannot be in the same group and face each other in the first phase. The exception is for those classified by the pre-Libertadores. Thus, Atlético-MG can compete with another Brazilian club. The classified Brazilian teams are Athletico Paraense, Atlético Mineiro, Corinthians, Flamengo, Fluminense, Internacional and Palmeiras. Last year, Flamengo won the competition by defeating Athletico Paraense by 1-0.
The dates for the Copa Libertadores da América group stage games are scheduled for April 4th to 6th (1st round); 2nd round (April 18th to 20th); 3rd round (May 2nd to 4th); 4th round (May 23-25); 5th round (June 6th to 8th) and the last round on June 27th to 29th.
