Draw

edit

The champions and runners-up of each football association were drawn into the same group along with another football association's participating teams. Three clubs from Chile competed as Colo-Colo was champion of the 1991 Copa Libertadores.

Group 1 Group 2 Group 3 Group 4 Group 5

Group stage

edit

Group 1

edit

Colo-Colo, as the previous year champions, should join the competition only in the Round of 16, but they requested to start the competition in the group stage, due to financial reasons, thus five clubs participated in this group.[1]
