The 2012 Copa Libertadores de América (officially the 2012 Copa Santander Libertadores de América for sponsorship reasons) will be the 53rd edition of the Copa Libertadores, CONMEBOL's premier international club tournament. The winner will play in the 2013 Recopa Sudamericana and the best-placed non-Mexican team will play in the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup. Brazilian club Santos is the defending champion.

Qualified teams

The following associations have adopted new qualification methods for this tournament:

  • Argentina: The team with the best performance in the 2011 Copa Sudamericana not already qualified for the 2012 Copa Libertadores will earn the Argentina 5 berth.[1]
  • Bolivia: The league will change their calendar to European calendar (like Argentina, Uruguay and Venezuela) starting from 2011–12. The 2011 Adecuación will be a single-stage season, and the champion and runner-up will earn the Bolivia 1 and Bolivia 3 berths respectively.[2] The 2011 Apertura champion will earn the Bolivia 2 berth.[3]
  • Chile: The league will return to the Apertura and Clausura format for the 2011 season, after using a single-season format for 2010 due to the 2010 Chile earthquake. The Apertura and Clausura champions will earn the Chile 1 and Chile 2 berths respectively, and the best-placed non-champion will earn the Chile 3 berth.[4]
  • Peru: The league will use a home-and-away round-robin format, followed by the championship play-off between the top two teams, for the 2011 season. The champion and runner-up (decided by play-off) will earn the Peru 1 and Peru 2 berths respectively, and the third-placed team (decided by league table) will earn the Peru 3 berth.[5]

Teams in bold qualified directly for the Second Stage.
