Draw

The draw for the group stage was held on 21 December 2016, 20:00 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay.^[3]^[4]

Teams were seeded by their CONMEBOL ranking of the Copa Libertadores (shown in parentheses),^[5] taking into account of the following three factors:^[6]

Performance in the last 10 years, taking into account Copa Libertadores results in the period 2007–2016
Historical coefficient, taking into account Copa Libertadores results in the period 1960–2006
Local tournament champion, with bonus points awarded to domestic league champions of the last 10 years

For the group stage, the 32 teams were drawn into eight groups (Groups 1–8) of four containing a team from each of the four pots. Teams from the same association could not be drawn into the same group, excluding the winners of the third stage, which were allocated to Pot 4 and whose identity was not known at the time of the draw, and could be drawn into the same group with another team from the same association.
