Draw

Location of teams of the 2016 Copa Libertadores from Mexico.

The draw of the tournament was held on 22 December 2015, 20:30 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay.[15][3][16]

Starting from this season, teams are seeded by the newly established CONMEBOL ranking of the Copa Libertadores (except for teams from Mexico which are not ranked and thus seeded last in all draws),[17][18] which takes into account of the following three factors:[19]

  1. Performance in the last 10 years, taking into account Copa Libertadores results in the period 2006–2015
  2. Historical coefficient, taking into account Copa Libertadores results in the period 1960–2005
  3. Local tournament champion, with bonus points awarded to domestic league champions of the last 10 years

For the first stage, the 12 teams were drawn into six ties containing a team from Pot A and a team from Pot B, with the former hosting the second leg. The teams were seeded based on their CONMEBOL ranking (shown in parentheses).[18] Teams from the same association could not be drawn into the same tie.[20]

Argentina Huracán (72)
Ecuador Independiente del Valle (78)
Peru Universidad César Vallejo (152)
Uruguay River Plate (no rank)
Mexico Puebla (no rank)

For the second stage, the 32 teams were drawn into eight groups of four containing a team from each of the four pots. The defending champions (River Plate) were automatically placed first in Pot 1 and allocated to Group 1 for the draw. The remaining teams were seeded based on their CONMEBOL ranking (shown in parentheses).[18] Teams from the same association in Pots 1, 2 and 3 could not be drawn into the same group. Teams from Mexico were allocated to Pot 4, together with the winners of the first stage, whose identity was not known at the time of the draw, and they could be drawn into the same group with another team from the same association.[20]

If tied on points, the following criteria are used to determine the ranking: 1. Goal difference; 2. Goals scored; 3. Away goals scored; 4. Drawing of lots.

Prize money dispute

In January 2016, several clubs threatened to withdraw from the competition due a disagreement regarding prize money. CONMEBOL had offered a 40% increase on what was given in the 2015 edition but clubs wanted a 150% increase.[23] On 2 February, CONMEBOL announced that the prize money paid to each club was doubled from the previous amount.[24]
