Who are the favorites?

Recent history shows that it is hard to look past the Brazilian sides as favorites, with clubs from that country having won the past six Copa Libertadores competitions. Reigning champions, Botafogo, are in the Round of 16 to defend their title and have been joined by five other Brazilian sides including Flamengo and Palmeiras.

However, River Plate will once again be leading the charge for Argentina, a nation that may be World Cup winners but whose clubs are second best in the Copa Libertadores of late.

Colombia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Ecuador, and Peru are also a represented in a continent-spanning tournament that is the ultimate test of skill and stamina in soccer.
