Notes
  • On 8 August 2019 the Ukrainian Association of Football announced that Peremoha was stripped of 9 tournament points in the 2019–20 season.[15] However, the AAFU official standing did not reflect that fact and no mentioning about the decision either.
  • The game between Dnipro-1-Borysfen and Motor on 28 September 2019 did not take place, possible due to fact that a team of medics did not arrive to the game.[16] Later the standings were adjusted where it was reflected that Motor received technical victory (3:0) and Dnipro technical loss (0:3).
  • During the weekend October 5–6, 2019 two more scheduled games failed to take place Vovchansk – Peremoha (5 October) and Motor – Zirka (6 October). Both games were granted on 7 October 2019 technical scores by AAFU with wins awarded to hosting teams in both games.[17]
  • Please, note that sum of wins in the table is lower than sum of losses because in games between withdrawn clubs that did not take place both received loss.

Second stage

Following ease of quarantine restrictions, on 22 June 2020 it was announced that the competition will be resumed on 27 June 2020.[6] It was decided to finish the first stage of competition consisting of three groups as planned, however for the second stage it was decided to replace play-off format with another group stage final mini-tournament consisting of two groups of 4 each and taking place in one place.[6] The second stage is expected to take place in early August and will also include the final game.[7] On 28 July 2020 the AAFU approved the format for the final (second) stage which would be as a single-elimination tournament with a single leg.[18] The first games are expected to take place on 9 August 2020 with the draw for semifinals taking place the next day on 10 August.[18] The final game will take place at the Viktor Bannikov Educational and Training Field in Kyiv.[18]

On 6 August 2020 it was announced that the new season is expected to start on 29 August 2020, while registration to participate in competitions on 10 August 2020.[19] The Ukrainian Amateur Cup is being planned to start on September 9-16, 2020.[19]
