The competition began on January 21, 2020, and concluded with the final on January 30, 2021. It was originally scheduled to end in November 2020, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The tournament followed a group stage format, where the teams were divided into eight groups of four teams each. The top two teams from each group advanced to the knockout stage, which consisted of single-leg rounds until the final.
The final was held at the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and was contested by Brazilian team Palmeiras and Argentine team Santos. Palmeiras won the match 1-0 to secure their second Copa Libertadores title.
The Copa Libertadores 2020 was also notable for featuring the introduction of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) in the knockout stage, which was implemented to improve the accuracy of decisions made by match officials.
