The 2019–20 Copa Argentina (officially the Copa Argentina AXION energy 2019–20 for sponsorship reasons)[2] was the eleventh edition of the Copa Argentina, and the ninth since the relaunch of the tournament in 2011. The competition began on 15 January 2020 and ended on 8 December 2021. On 17 March 2020, the Argentine Football Association (AFA) announced the suspension of the tournament to prevent the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19.[3] After several months the tournament resumed on 23 December 2020.[4]

Originally, the champions would have qualified for the 2021 Copa Libertadores, however on 11 December 2020 the Copa Argentina organizers announced that the 2019–20 edition would not end before the beginning of the 2021 Copa Libertadores. Therefore, AFA decided that the Copa Argentina berth for the 2021 Copa Libertadores would be reallocated to the best team of the 2019–20 Superliga Argentina and 2020 Copa de la Superliga aggregate table not yet qualified and that the champions would qualify for the 2022 Copa Libertadores instead, as proposed to AFA by the Copa Argentina organizers.[5] River Plate, the defending champions, were eliminated in the round of 16.

Boca Juniors defeated Talleres (C) in the final on penalties to win their fourth tournament title.[6] As champions, they qualified for the 2022 Copa Libertadores group stage and the 2021 Supercopa Argentina.
