The 2017 Copa Libertadores qualifying stages were played from 23 January to 23 February 2017.[1] A total of 19 teams competed in the qualifying stages to decide four of the 32 places in the group stage of the 2017 Copa Libertadores.[2]

Draw

The draw for the qualifying stages 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]

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

For the first stage, the six teams were drawn into three ties (E1–E3), with the seeded teams hosting the second leg.

Teams from the same association could not be drawn into the same tie, excluding the winners of the first stage, which were unseeded and whose identity was not known at the time of the draw, and could be drawn into the same tie with another team from the same association.
