With my knowledge of how the randomness works in other parts of VM my guess is that it works like this:
# of teams for this round: 128

Match 1: Team 1: Random number between 1 and 128.
Match 1: Team 2: Random number between 1 and 127 (128 - 1 the first one already drawn).
Match 2: Team 1: Random number between 1 and 126.
etc etc

I have no clue if team 1 is just assigned as home team, or there is an extra draw regarding that.
