2019_Copa_Sudamericana_first_stage
The 2019 Copa Sudamericana first stage was played from 5 February to 8 May 2019.[1] A total of 44 teams competed in the first stage to decide 22 of the 32 places in the second stage of the 2019 Copa Sudamericana.[2]
The draw for the first stage was held on 17 December 2018, 20:30 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay.[3][4][5] For the first stage, the teams were divided into two pots according to their geographical zones:[6][7]
- Pot A (South Zone): 22 teams from Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay
- Pot B (North Zone): 22 teams from Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela
The 44 teams were drawn into 22 ties (E1–E22) between a team from Pot A and a team from Pot B, with the teams from Pot B hosting the second leg in odd-numbered ties, and the teams from Pot A hosting the second leg in even-numbered ties. This distribution ensured that teams from the same association could not be drawn into the same tie.

- Notes
In the first stage, each tie was played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If tied on aggregate, the away goals rule was used. If still tied, extra time was not played, and a penalty shoot-out was used to determine the winner (Regulations Article 27).[2]
The 22 winners of the first stage advanced to the second stage to join the 10 teams transferred from the Copa Libertadores (two best teams eliminated in the third stage of qualifying and eight third-placed teams in the group stage).
The first legs were played on 5–7, 12–14, 26 February, 19–21 March and 2–4 April, and the second legs were played on 19–21, 26–28 February, 21 March, 16–18, 30 April, 1–2 and 8 May 2019.[8][9]
