Serie A 2019–20 was the 118th season of top-tier Italian football, the 88th in a round-robin tournament, and the 10th since its organization under an own league committee, the Lega Serie A. Juventus were the eight-time defending champions and they successfully defended their title following a 2–0 win against Sampdoria on 26 July 2020.
The season was originally scheduled to run from 24 August 2019 to 24 May 2020. However, on 9 March 2020, the Italian government halted the league until 3 April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy.

Finally, on 28 May, it was confirmed that Serie A would resume starting 20 June.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Serie A
On 22 February 2020, Italy’s Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, suspended all sporting events in the regions of Lombardy and Veneto, which included three Serie A matches scheduled for the following day, as well as one in Piedmont, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following week, six matches were initially set to be played behind closed doors due to concerns over the outbreak, but they were later suspended outright.
On 4 March, the government ruled that all sporting events in Italy would be played behind closed doors until 3 April. On 9 March, the government further ruled that all sporting events in the country would be suspended until 3 April. Serie A did not resume on this date, stating that play would only continue once “health conditions allow it.”
On 13 May, it was announced that team training would resume on 18 May, and on that same day, it was confirmed that Italian football would be suspended until 14 June. Finally, on 28 May, Italian Minister for Sport Vincenzo Spadafora announced that Serie A would resume starting 20 June.
A protocol was established, stating that if one member of a team, either a player or staff member, tested positive for COVID-19, the entire squad would be quarantined for 14 days. However, on 18 June, Spadafora approved a softening of quarantine rules, allowing only the individual who tested positive to be quarantined, while the rest of the squad would increase testing, including a rapid-response test the day before a match.
