The draw of the tournament was held on 12 January 2024, 11:00 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Convention Centre in Luque, Paraguay. The hosts, Paraguay, and the previous tournament's champions, Argentina, were seeded and assigned to the head of the groups A and B respectively. The remaining eight teams were split into four "pairing pots" (Brazil–Colombia, Uruguay–Venezuela, Ecuador–Bolivia, Peru–Chile) based on the final placement they reached in the previous edition of the tournament (shown in brackets).[4]

Pot 1 Pot 2 Pot 3 Pot 4

From each pot, the first team drawn was placed into Group A and the second team drawn was placed into Group B. In both groups, teams from pot 1 were allocated in position 2, teams from pot 2 in position 3, teams from pot 3 in position 4 and teams from pot 4 in position 5.[4]
