The draw for the group stage of the Libertadores determined the pots; See potential opponents of Timo

Corinthians will play in the Copa Libertadores da América 2022. On Thursday evening, the total of the draw for the group stage of the continental competition was decided. The draw is scheduled for next Friday at 12:00 (Brasilia time). The tournament is scheduled to start on April 6.

The last time she was seeded for the first stage of the competition was The Strongest, of Bolivia, which eliminated Universidad Católica, of Ecuador. In all, 32 clubs will be divided into eight groups of four teams. For this purpose, CONMEBOL separates four pots with eight teams in the tournament – see below.

As it was already known, Parque São Jorge club falls into the second pot of the competition. This is because Corinthians is only 29th in the CONMEBOL ranking, with a score of 2526.7 points. Timao is the 10th Brazilian on the list, behind Atletico, Atletico MG, Cruzeiro, Flamengo, Gremio, Internacional, Palmeiras, Santos and Sao Paulo.

It is worth remembering that clubs from the same country cannot play each other in the group stage. The only exception is if one qualified in a pre-Libertadores, as in the case of America Mineiro, which could appear in the Timão group.
