Conmebol picks 2026 Women's Libertadores host, Corinthians react | OneFootball

Throughout the afternoon of this Thursday (26), Conmebol announced on its social media the host country for the 2026 Women's Libertadores. The Brabas, seven-time champions of the tournament (2017, 2019, 2021, 2023, 2024, and 2025), will seek yet another title in the international competition in Ecuador. The tournament will take place between October 15 and 31.

Conmebol, however, has not yet announced the stadiums and cities that will host the international competition matches. In addition to Corinthians, other Brazilian teams will compete in this season's Libertadores representing Brazilian football: Cruzeiro and Palmeiras. The tendency is for the format of previous years to be maintained, with four groups of four teams each, followed by single-elimination knockout rounds.

In 2025, it is worth remembering, Corinthians won their sixth Women's Libertadores title playing in Argentina, at the Nuevo Francisco Urbano (Deportivo Morón) and Florencio Sola (Banfield) stadiums. The club from Parque São Jorge faced Deportivo Cali from Colombia, winning 5 x 3 on penalties after a goalless draw in regular time. Goalkeeper Nicole was decisive in the final match.

Corinthians, now under the command of Emily Lima, are currently on a FIFA break and will return to the field only on March 13 at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Arena Barueri, to face Palmeiras in the Derby valid for the third round of the Women's Brazilian Championship, in which the Brabas are seven-time champions (2018, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025).
