The 2020 Latvian Football Cup was the 26th edition of the football tournament. The competition began on 23 July 2020 and ended on 8 November 2020. RFS were the defending champions, having won the previous year's final over Jelgava 3–2 after extra time.[1] The cup winners qualified for the 2021–22 UEFA Europa League 1st qualifying round.
