Notes
^ The Juventude vs. Grêmio match was played at the Estádio Montanha dos Vinhedos , Bento Gonçalves , instead of their regular stadium Estádio Alfredo Jaconi , Caxias do Sul , who was having his stadium renovated on the date of the match.[ 4]
^ The São Luiz vs. Grêmio match was played at the Estádio Vermelhão da Serra , Passo Fundo , instead of their regular stadium Estádio 19 de Outubro , Ijuí , due to a punishment for acts of racial insult practiced by a São Luiz supporter in the 2020 Campeonato Gaúcho , thus preventing the club from playing in its regular stadium.[ 5]
^ The Ayacucho vs. Grêmio match, originally scheduled to be played at the Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega , Cusco , Peru , took place in Ecuador at the Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa , Quito , due to the Peruvian government not allowing Brazilians to enter the country because of the COVID-19 pandemic .[ 7]
^ The Independiente del Valle vs. Grêmio match would initially be played at the Estadio Rodrigo Paz Delgado , Quito , instead of their regular stadium Estadio Rumiñahui , Sangolquí , which was under reconstruction on the date of the match.[ 8] However, due to cases of COVID-19 infection in Grêmio's squad, the Ecuadorian government has prohibited the match from taking place in his country. Because of this, CONMEBOL rescheduled the match from 7 April to 9 April, changing the place to Paraguay at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco , Asunción .[ 9]
^ The La Equidad vs. Grêmio match, originally scheduled to be played at the Estadio Metropolitano de Techo , Bogotá , Colombia , took place in at the Estadio Bellavista , Ambato , Ecuador , due to civil unrest in Colombia .[ 11]
