The 2020 Coupe de France Final will be a football match between Paris Saint-Germain and Saint-Étienne to decide the winner of the 2019–20 Coupe de France, the 103rd season of the Coupe de France. The final was originally scheduled for 25 April at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, Paris,[1][2] but was postponed due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic.

On 28 April 2020, Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced all sporting events in France would be cancelled.[3] As of 28 April 2020, the FFF were considering whether the final of the Coupe de France could be rescheduled for when events are allowed to restart.[4]

Background

Paris Saint-Germain are the runners-up of last year's edition, having lost the 2019 final to Rennes after a penalty shoot-out following a 2–2 draw in extra time.[5][6]

Saint-Étienne reach the final this year, having lost at the round of 32 of last year's edition to Dijon.[7]
