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.
On 28 April 2020, Prime Minister Édouard Philippe announced all sporting events in France would be cancelled until September. On 26 June, the LFP announced that the final was rescheduled to 31 July.
Paris Saint-Germain won the final 6–5 on penalties over Lyon, following a 0–0 draw after extra time, for their ninth Coupe de la Ligue title.
