Format

Starting from the knockout round play-offs, the teams play a single-elimination tournament with the following rules:

  • In the knockout round play-offs, round of 16, quarter-finals and semi-finals, each tie is played on a home-and-away two-legged basis, with the higher-seeded team hosting the second leg (Regulations Article 2.2.3). If tied on aggregate, extra time will not be played, and a penalty shoot-out will be used to determine the winners (Regulations Article 2.4.4).
  • The final is played as a single match at a venue pre-selected by CONMEBOL, with the higher-seeded team designated as the "home" team for administrative purposes (Regulations Article 2.2.6). If tied after regulation, 30 minutes of extra time will be played. If still tied after extra time, a penalty shoot-out will be used to determine the winners (Regulations Article 2.4.5).

Draw

The draw for the round of 16 was held on 5 July 2023, 12:00 PYT (UTC−4) at the CONMEBOL Convention Center in Luque, Paraguay.{{cite web|url=https://www.conmebol.com/noticias/fecha-y-horario-para-los-sorteos-de-los-octavos-de-final/|title=Fecha y horario para los sorteos de los Octavos de Final|trans-title=Date and time for the Round of 16 draws|publisher=CONMEBOL|language=es|date=21 June 2023|access-date=21 June 2023}}{{cite web|url=https://www.conmebol.com/noticias/los-cruces-de-octavos-en-la-conmebol-sudamericana-2023/|title=Los cruces de Octavos en la CONMEBOL Sudamericana 2023|trans-title=The Round of 16 matchups in the 2023 CONMEBOL Sudamericana|publisher=CONMEBOL|language=es|date=5 July 2023|access-date=5 July 2023}} For the round of 16, the 16 teams were drawn into eight ties (A–H) between a Copa Sudamericana group winner (Pot 1) and a knockout round play-offs winner (Pot 2), with the group winners hosting the second leg. Teams from the same association or the same group could be drawn into the same tie (Regulations Article 2.2.3.2).
