National Bank of Egypt, Ceramica Cleopatra and Ghazl El Mahalla won Group A, Group B and Group C respectively and secured the promotion to the 2020–21 Egyptian Premier League; with the first two earning a place in the top flight for the first time in their history.

On 2 July 2020, the EFA announced that football competitions in Egypt would resume, with the Premier League recommencing on 6 August, Second Division on 21 September and Egypt Cup on 30 September. The EFA also confirmed that all clubs' players and staff would be tested for COVID-19 before resuming training.^[4]^[5]

The tables lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve chronological evolvements, any postponed matches are not included in the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. For example, if a match is scheduled for matchday 13, but then postponed and played between days 16 and 17, it will be added to the standings for day 16.
