Brazilian football Libertadores qualification changes
Overview
The number of Brazilian clubs qualifying for the Copa Libertadores via the Campeonato Brasileiro could expand significantly due to recent regulatory changes and tournament outcomes. While the CBF reduced direct league slots from six to five, additional positions can be generated through continental success.
If Brazilian clubs win the Copa Libertadores or the Copa Sudamericana, the extra berths are redistributed to the domestic league standings. Furthermore, the finalists of the Copa do Brasil can influence the final tally; if both finalists have already secured qualification through other means, additional slots may become available. This could shift the qualification threshold from a ‘G-5’ to a ‘G-9’ scenario, impacting the standing requirements for various clubs.
Entities
