2019–20 Taça de Portugal

The 2019–20 Taça de Portugal (also known as Taça de Portugal Placard for sponsorship reasons) was the 80th edition of the Taça de Portugal, the premier knockout competition in Portuguese football. A total of 144 clubs entered this edition, including teams from the top three tiers of the Portuguese football league system and representatives of the fourth-tier District leagues and cups. This was the first season to allow a fourth substitution during extra time.

The competition began on 1 September 2019 with the first-round matches and was scheduled to conclude on 24 May 2020 with the final at the Estádio Nacional in Oeiras, between top-tier sides Benfica and Porto. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal, the final was postponed to 1 August 2020 and was played instead at the Estádio Cidade de Coimbra in Coimbra, behind closed doors. Porto beat Benfica 2–1 to win their 17th title in the competition and secure the club's eighth double.

Primeira Liga side Sporting CP were the defending champions, but they were eliminated by third-tier side Alverca in the third round.
