The 2019–20 CONCACAF Champions League was the 55th season of North Americas's premier club football tournament organised by CONCACAF, and the 12th season since it was renamed from the CONCACAF Champions' Cup to the CONCACAF Champions League.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tournament was suspended from March until June 2020. The tournament resumed at a the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, Florida, United States to minimize contamination. The remaining rounds of the quarterfinals, semifinals, and final were played behind closed doors. The final was still held at Exploria Stadium in Orlando.
American side, Los Angeles FC won their first Champions League title, besting Mexican outfit, América, in penalty kicks 5–3 after drawing 1–1 in regulation.
Association team allocation
editAssociation ranking
editFor the 2019–20 CONCACAF Champions League, the associations are allocated places according to their 2017 CONCACAF country coefficients, which takes into account their performance in North American competitions from 2013–14 to 2017–18.

- ^ Canada (CAN): A domestic league must contain at least 6 teams for multiple entries into the CONCACAF Champions League. Canada, having four entrees for this edition of the tournament cannot have more than 1 entry. Beginning with the 2020–21 CONCACAF Champions League, Canada will be permitted up to four teams given the size of the Canadian Premier League and Canadian clubs based in American leagues.
Distribution
editThe table below shows the default access list.
Teams entering in this round | Teams advancing from previous round | ||
---|---|---|---|
First qualifying round (20 teams) |

Second qualifying round (34 teams) |

Third qualifying round | Champions Route (20 teams) |

The access list above is provisional, as changes will be made depending on whether the Champions League and Europa League title holders qualify for the tournament via their domestic leagues. The Champions League title holders always enter directly into the group stage. The Europa League title holders also enter directly into the group stage if either they or the Champions League title holders qualify for the group stage via their domestic leagues (if both teams qualify for the group stage via their domestic leagues, the champions of association 13 enter directly into the group stage). Otherwise, the Europa League title holders enter directly the play-off round, with the route they enter depending on the Champions League title holders:
- League Route: If the Champions League title holders have qualified for any round of the League Route, or have not qualified for the tournament via their domestic league and are from the associations 1–12 in the access list.
- Champions Route: If the Champions League title holders have qualified for any round of the Champions Route, or have not qualified for the tournament via their domestic league and are from the associations 13–54 in the access list.
The final access list will then be adjusted accordingly, with teams entering either earlier or later into the competition in order to ensure that the group stage consists of 32 teams and the play-off round consists of 20 teams. UEFA has published a detailed document outlining several possible qualification scenarios, which are also covered in the regulations.
