The 2019–20 season was the 110th season in existence of Bologna and the fifth consecutive season in Serie A and 73rd in total. Having finished 10th the previous season, Bologna competed solely in domestic competitions, in Serie A and the Coppa Italia.

The season was coach Siniša Mihajlović's first full campaign in charge of the club, after having replaced Filippo Inzaghi in January 2019. However, Mihajlović held a press conference on 13 July, following reports of a serious illness, in which he announced that he was battling leukemia.[1] Immediately following the announcement, the club insisted that Mihajlović would remain coach and could continue working so long as he felt able to do so.[2]
