The 2020 Copa Federación de España was the 28th edition of the Copa Federación de España, also known as Copa RFEF, a knockout competition for Spanish football clubs in Segunda División B and Tercera División.
The competition began in September with the first games of the Regional stages and ended in December with the final of the National tournament. As part of the new competition format started in 2019, the four semifinalists qualified to the Copa del Rey first round.
The Andalusia Football Federation (RFAF) decided to create the 'Copa RFAF' in 2020. The finalists would be the Andalusian representatives in the Copa Federación national phase.[1]
The best Andalusian teams in groups 9 (Eastern Andalusia and Melilla) and 10 (Western Andalusia and Ceuta) of the 2019–20 Tercera División not qualified for the 2020–21 Copa del Rey were selected for the competition. The best and second-best qualified teams of each group were seeded and played the quarter-final matches against the fourth and third-best qualified teams of their groups, respectively. The semi-finals were then between the winners from the same group, in order to have one finalist, and therefore one team qualified for the national phase, from each group.

Due to the delay on starting the competitions, the tournament was played in a reduced format based on single-match rounds. 12 teams joined the competition. Semifinals and Final were played at Estadio Hermanos Antuña, in Mieres with a limited maximum attendance of 1,000 spectators, after they were moved from Estadio Ganzábal, in Langreo due to an outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Asturias.[3]
Seeded teams joined the competition in the second round. In the first two rounds, if a match ended in a draw the best-ranked team qualified. In the semi-finals and the final, in case of draw there would be directly a penalty shootout, without playing any overtime.[4]
The matches of the two first rounds were played at the stadium of the worst qualified team.
