Draw
The draw of the tournament was held on July 16, 2015, 20:00 UTC−4, at the Salón Joao Havelange of the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay.[2]
For the first stage, the 32 teams were divided into two zones:

- North Zone: The 16 teams from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela were drawn into eight ties.

Teams from the same association could not be drawn into the same tie.

The 15 winners of the second stage (eight from winners of the first stage, four from Brazil, three from Argentina) advanced to the round of 16 to join the defending champions (River Plate).[1]
