The regular season was played as a round-robin tournament. A total of 16 teams participated, 14 of which competed in the league during the 2018–19 season, while the remaining two were promoted from the 2018-19 I liga. The season started on 19 July 2019 and concluded on 19 July 2020 (the fixtures were announced on 3 June 2019 and revised on 13 May 2020 due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic).[5][6][7] After the 20th matchday the league went on a winter break between 23 December 2019 and 8 February 2020. On 13 March 2020, the Ekstraklasa SA suspended the league due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.[8][9][10][11][12] After consultation with the Polish government, the league resumed behind closed doors without any spectators on 29 May 2020. All matches of 31–37 round have been played with "no more than 25 percent of the number of seats allocated to the public".

Each team plays a total of 30 matches, half at home and half away. After the 30th round (in the beginning of April 2020), the league will split into two groups: championship round (top eight teams) and relegation round (bottom eight teams). Each team plays 7 more games (teams ranked 1 to 4 and 9 to 12 played four times at home). Therefore, each team plays a total of 37 matches. The team at the top of the Championship round wins the league title. However, the rules for promotion and relegation from the league have changed: starting from the 2019/20 season, three teams will be relegated from Ekstraklasa to I league, while from the first league to Ekstraklasa two teams will advance directly, while teams from 3-6 places will fight in a play-off where the winner will be awarded with a promotion to Ekstraklasa.[13]

The defending champions are Piast Gliwice, who won their 1st Polish title the previous season. The two clubs promoted were Raków Częstochowa, returning to Ekstraklasa after 21 years, as well as ŁKS Łódź, who make a return to Ekstraklasa after 7 years.
