The 2020 Coupe de la Ligue final decided the winner of the 2019–20 Coupe de la Ligue, the 26th and last edition of France's football league cup competition, the Coupe de la Ligue, contested by the 44 teams that the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) manages. The final was originally scheduled for 4 April 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in France.{{cite news |url=https://www.lfp.fr/Articles/COMMUNIQUÉS/2020/03/11/la-finale-de-la-coupe-de-la-ligue-bkt-reportee |title=La finale de la Coupe de la Ligue BKT reportée |trans-title=Coupe de la Ligue BKT final postponed |language=fr |publisher=lfp.fr |date=11 March 2020 |access-date=11 March 2020}} The final took place at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, and was contested by Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon.

As the LFP voted in September 2019 to abolish the Coupe de la Ligue for the following season, the match was the last in the competition's history.{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49747220|title=French League Cup to end from 2020 'to reduce season schedule'|publisher=BBC Sport|date=18 September 2019|access-date=18 September 2019}}
