The 2020 Finnish Cup is the 65th season of the Finnish Cup football competition.[1] [2]
Until the 2017–2018 season, the tournament was held in the autumn-spring schedule from July to September of the following year. The introduction of this new format of the contest meant that the League Cup was suspended.
The winner of the Finnish Cup qualifies for the 2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League.[3]
